Martin Atkins	6704f8c795	Initial work on a new package build process ... For the moment this is just an experimental additional sidecar package build process, separate from the one we really use for releases, so that we can get some experience building in the GitHub Actions environment before hopefully eventually switching to using the artifacts from this process as the packages we'll release through the official release channels. It will react to any push to one of our release branches or to a release tag by building official-release-like .zip, .deb, and .rpm packages, along with Docker images, based on the content of the corresponding commit. For the moment this doesn't actually produce _shippable_ packages because in particular it doesn't know how to update our version/version.go file to hard-code the correct version number. Once Go 1.18 is release and we've upgraded to it we'll switch to using debug.ReadBuildInfo to determine our version number at runtime and so no longer need to directly update a source file for each release, but that functionality isn't yet available in our current Go 1.17 release.	4 years ago
