Salsa-CI: Re-enable upgrade tests for Buster to Sid

Otto Kekäläinen requested to merge otto/mariadb-server:debian/latest-full-upgrade-tests into debian/latest

Upgrade tests from Stretch to Sid and Buster to Sid were previously disabled due to Bug#993755. Re-enable upgrade tests from Buster now with workaround applied in the step that enables Sid repositories.

Do not re-enable any Stretch upgrade tests - that is already oldoldstable and not even the most outdated Debian LTS users should attempt to jump from Stretch MariaDB 10.1 directly to Sid/Bookworm MariaDB 10.6.

Also refactor the structure so that we have:

  • Simple upgrade tests to ensure the newly built packages upgrade nicely replacing the previous packages.

  • Complex upgrade tests to ensure the newly built packages upgrade nicely and that the distro release upgrade also works.

  • Cross-vendor upgrade tests to ensure the newly built packages upgrade nicely replacing similar but not identical packages from another third party repositories.
