Make build names (snapshot) match filename identifier (dev)

[mcarans]

I find the relationship between builds and identifiers in filenames somewhat baffling.

Currently we have:

1. "release" which is in fact a test package with "test" in the filename
2. "release-deployment" which is the actual release and doesn't add anything to the filename
3. "release-snapshot" which is a development package with "dev" in the filename.

What I suggest is:

1. "release" which is the actual release and doesn't add anything to the filename
2. "release-test" which adds "test" to the filename
3. "release-dev" which adds "dev" to the filename.

This would involve updating names and variables etc. that have deployment or snapshot in them to be consistent throughout the project.

What are your thoughts @oocube @phkb @kanthoney ?

For clarity : this is about the filenames visible on the releases page ?

I've been wondering about this many times but not dared to touch it.
That makes then two of us. :-)

@LW-archlinux Yes, it is about the names of the artifacts. When you download build artifacts you look at internal names which resemble the makefile targets. The files inside the artifacts are what you see on the releases page - slightly better but I'd still be wondering what the difference is between a debug version and a test version or when to use which. Better naming and a decision table are necessary.

As the artifact names are internal to our build process we could change them directly to match their content. That makes it easier for users to pick non-releases from pull requests. If we were to rename release, test and debug this will create bigger impact in the community.
