This is needed only when taking source from tarballs, and the contents
of the tarball-containing directory cannot be listed due to web server
configuration (but the tarballs are referred to from some other
webpage). The upstream version checker downloads the webpage, and goes
over html links in it to determine which of those links point to the
tarball, and of those, which is the latest tarball.

When taking the source from git, the upstream checker lists git tags
directly from the repo clone, sorts them and picks the latest.

You can also fine-tune how the latest version is matched against the
tarball filenames through UPSTREAM_CHECK_REGEX, or against git tags
through UPSTREAM_CHECK_GITTAGREGEX but it's not needed here.
