24. Add a "release_status" field

Proposal:

Add a mandatory ''release_status'' field with a limited list of acceptable values. E.g. "stable", "testing" and "unstable", with "alpha" as an alias
for "unstable" and "beta" as an alias for "testing".

Have PAUSE use this field first to determine whether distributions should
be indexed.  (Eventually, have PAUSE create separate indexes "stable",
"stable+testing", "stable+testing+unstable".)

Is this not really trying to solve the same issue as CMSP 23. Have a "development version" flag
