To prevent unbounded size growth, we want to delete older nightly and beta manifests from master branch regularly. Users of old nightly and beta toolchains can still access from the `before/` tags, but these tags will not receive patch updates anymore. Currently cut-off can only be deployed manually. Stable versions are not affected and are all kept currently.

Fixes #160
This reduces source size from 48MiB tar (32MiB tar.gz) to 16MiB tar (11MiB tar.gz). The planned strategy is to purge nightly and beta versions ealier than
{current_year - 1}-01-01. That means only the recent 1-2 years of nightly/beta history is kept.TODO: snapshot tag is not created yet.
