The

 B B let $numbers := tokenize(., '\.') ! xs:integer(.)

breaks up the e.g. 16.2.0 value into a sequence of three integers 16, 2,
0, then the grouping key for each item is computed by maintaining the
leading numbers in that sequence but by computing

 B  B  $numbers[last()] - position() + 1

for the last number, if these form a range that computation will give
the same number for a range and then the string-join just re-assembles
the complete value (for the group-adjacent key).

Of course the

 B  - position() + 1

could also just be

 B  - position()

but I thought it to be more logical to make sure the first item's group
key is the value given in the xref element and not a value where the
last number is decremented.
