Add a file containing the release title (derived from the pull request
title / commit message) to CICD releases - this is so that it will be
able to pick this up by the process updating the release pages on our
webserver, and show a list of the last few changes for each release.

While for the other platforms we can simply copy our binaries (maybe
after signing them), for Fedora and Ubuntu we have to trigger fresh
builds.
The most logical way that I could think of to do this was to push the
same commit corresponding with the intended current release into a
branch named 'current' and have that trigger Copr and Launchpad builds
that post into our release repos.
So 'master' keeps moving forward, keeps creating new build numbers.
At some point we pick a build number that we want to be the next
'current' release. We then update the current branch to the commit that
corresponds to that build number and push the current branch which
triggers new builds in the correct repos on Copr and Launchpad.
This commit removes the silly 'push' argument from the make-package
scripts (after all, they are used to push those packages to the
respective build services) and instead use the branch name as argument
to those scripts - allowing us to pick which repo to push into.

Move the GitHub Action that builds the Windows artefacts to use the new
subsurface/mxe-build:3.1.0 container.
Also rename references to the old container in scripts and
documantation.

Add a GitHub action that builds the docker image to run builds for the
Windows (MXE) version of Subsurface.
Also update the MXE image Dockerfile to the latest version of MXE, and
add a patch to use a current version of mdbtools.
Configure GitHub actions that do not build docker images to not trigger
on changes to the contents of `scripts/docker/`.

It is very strange that in some yaml files the $(<release-version) construct
works just fine, but in others it evaluates to an empty string, even though the
file is there an has the correct content.
Attempting to get more debugging info and also use a different expression to
extract the information.

That was the whole point of the previous change.
Also, run the build number creation on a pull request as well (at least for a
while) so we don't need to create new releases in order to test that part of
the process).

In order to make it easier to see what's happening inside get-atomic-buildnr.sh
write the result to a file that can be read by the caller. Not quite as
elegant, but hopefully more practical to see what's going wrong when no new
build number is created.
Make sure that post-releasenotes is successfull by actually posting a release
artifact (apparently the gh release action otherwise quietly fails).
Try to ensure we find the Android APK when uploading to the release.

Some experimentation showed what should have been obvious. The release
information is additive. So it's enough if ONE of the actions creates release
notes, all the others can simply add additional release artifacts.
To make this more obvious, this commit creates a new action that does nothing
but create the release notes and publish the release. Since it really doesn't
do anything else, it's likely to be the quickest to complete, but that doesn't
matter - the last action that has a body or body_path in the gh-release action
determines the release notes. And we now have exactly one action that does so.

Instead of using a thirdparty action and painfully passing things around,
simply use the GitHub CLI (gh) and assemble the release notes on the fly.
This makes for much simpler and much easier to maintain code.

Move both code and the release note text into files that can be shared between
multiple actions.
This should make the actions smaller and easier to read and since this is used
in several actions it should make things much easier to maintain.
In order to test this without too much unnecessary noise, this commit only
changes the android workflow - the others will be changed in a later commit
once his has been tested and works (again, this can really only be tested by
merging the PR into master).

Move around the scripts required for the setup of the build environment
for android to satisfy docker's requirement of locality.
This allows the removal of an extra copy step, and avoids the creation
of extra artefacts, while still providing the same functionality.

- for now all versions start with v6.0
- CICD builds use the monolithic build number as patch level, e.g. v6.0.12345
- local builds use the following algorithm
- find the newest commit with a CICD build number that is included in the
working tree
- count the number of commits in the working tree since that commit
- if there are no commits since the last CICD build, the local build version
will be v6.0.12345-local
- if there are N commits since the last CICD build, it will be
v6.0.12345-N-local
- test builds in the CICD that don't create artifacts simply use a dummy release
in order to not incorrectly increment the build number and also not to waste
time and resources by manually checking out the nightly-build repo for each of
these builds.

Documentation about all this on GitHub is a bit confusing.
I'm not entirely sure that this is the way to go. But I can't try

Change the name of the `GITHUB_WORKSPACE` environment variable in the
android build script to `OUTPUT_DIR`, which is more intuitive when the
script is used for local builds.
Also test if the variable is defined before attempting to use it as the
target of the build output.

Prevent attempts to generate a build number for pull request builds as

The necessary keys to do so aren't available (and of course we don't try

What a pain. It turns out that github.run_number is counting the number of
times a specific workflow has been run - but that's different for different
workflows, so using that won't get us a single tag with all the corresponding
build artifacts. And sadly I can't find a simple atomic way to increase a
GitHUb repo variable, so I came up with this somewhat convoluted dance, using
the the fact that a push to an existing brach that isn't a fast-forward will
fail.
