To allow developers to consume the latest unstable and (near-)stable versions of our `xrpl` Conan recipe, we should export and upload it whenever a push occurs to the corresponding branch or a release tag has been created. This way, developers do not have to figure out themselves what the most recent shortened commit hash was to determine the latest unstable recipe version (e.g. `3.2.0-b0+a1b2c3d`) or what the most recent release (candidate) was to determine the latest (near-)stable recipe version (e.g. `3.1.0-rc2`).
Now, pushes to the `develop` branch will produce the `develop` recipe version, pushes to the `release` branch will produce the `rc` recipe version, and creation of versioned tags will produce the `release` recipe version.
The export and upload steps were initially in a separate action, where GitHub Actions does not support the `secrets` keyword, but only `inputs` for the credentials. After they were moved to a reusable workflow, only part of the references to the credentials were updated. This change correctly references to the Conan credentials via `secrets` instead of `inputs`.
By default the Conan recipe extracts the version from `BuildInfo.cpp`, but in some of the cases we want to upload a recipe with a suffix derived from the commit hash. This currently then results in the uploading to fail, since there is a version mismatch.
Here we explicitly set the version, and then simplify the steps in the upload workflow since we now need the recipe name (embedded within the conanfile.py but also needed when uploading), the recipe version, and the recipe ref (name/version).
This change uploads the `libxrpl` library as a Conan recipe to our remote when (i) merging into the `develop` branch, (ii) committing to a PR that targets a `release*` branch, and (iii) a versioned tag is applied. Clio is only notified in the second case. The user and channel are no longer used when uploading the recipe.
Specific changes are:
* A `generate-version` action is added, which extracts the build version from `BuildInfo.cpp` and appends the short 7-character commit hash to it for merges into the `develop` branch and for commits to a PR that targets a `release*` branch. When a tag is applied, however, the tag itself is used as the version. This functionality has been turned into a separate action as we will use the same versioning logic for creating .rpm and .deb packages, as well as Docker images.
* An `upload-recipe` action is added, which calls the `generate-version` action and further handles the uploading of the recipe to Conan.
* This action is called by both the `on-pr` and `on-trigger` workflows, and a new `on-tag` workflow.
The reason for this change is that we have downstream uses for the `libxrpl` library, but currently only upload the recipe to check for compatibility with Clio when making commits to a PR that targets the release branch.
