[Enhancement]: Create release channels again

[falk-w]

What changes would you like?

It would be nice to have a release channel again as we had in 3.7

See:
channels:
latest/stable: 3.10.1 2023-02-18 (372) 11MB classic
latest/candidate: ↑
latest/beta: ↑
latest/edge: 3.11.1 2023-02-18 (376) 12MB classic
3.7/stable: 3.7.0 2021-09-16 (353) 11MB classic
3.7/candidate: ↑
3.7/beta: ↑
3.7/edge: ↑
3.6/stable: 3.6.3 2021-07-14 (350) 10MB classic
3.6/candidate: ↑
3.6/beta: ↑
3.6/edge: ↑
3.5/stable: 3.5.4 2021-04-15 (336) 9MB classic

It would allow to limit snap upgrades to a certain max version.

Any extra information?

@jnsgruk Is it possible with our new CI? Like dev channel in sublime?

[jnsgruk]

Yeh it's definitely possible - it's just a fair bit of maintenance to open the new tracks etc.

In general the clients remain pretty backward compatible, and I'm not sure there is a an advantage to a new track for every release.

It is now possible to install particular revisions, which are tied to versions per the tags in this repo?
