Subject: CI: github: treat vX.Y.Z release tags as stable like haproxy-* branches
X-Git-Tag: v3.4-dev7~8
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=fc38ebb07909e66d90734b6e9a68b83a51228e69;p=thirdparty%2Fhaproxy.git

CI: github: treat vX.Y.Z release tags as stable like haproxy-* branches

Add detection of release tags matching the vX.Y.Z pattern so they use
the same stable CI configuration as haproxy-* branches, rather than the
development one.

It prevents stable tag to trigger the CI with docker images and SSL
libraries only used for development.

Must be backported in stable releases.
