hatch version should be able to handle static version numbers

[warsaw]

I have a project that uses a static version number in its pyproject.toml file, e.g.

[project]
version = '0.9.0'

When I try to run hatch version minor on this project, I get an error message:

Cannot set version when it is statically defined by the `project.version` field

While I know it would mean changing the pyproject.toml file, I can't think of a reason why this shouldn't be possible. Is it a case of "not implemented yet" or is there a reason why you don't want to support hatch version [level] on a static version number?

I'm using hatch 1.9.4

I think it was a case of "if there is no dynamic update implementation from the configured plugin we don't know what to do" but as you mention we in fact know precisely what to do lol I can fix this
