Draft: Yocto CI Improvements (Release-Deployment, Workflow Adaptations, etc.)

Open Frieder Schrempf requested to merge feature/yocto-ci-improvements into master

This MR contains the following changes:

  • Add job template for deployment to package repository
  • Add release job template for creating GitLab releases
  • Trigger release jobs on legacy tags and on main branch with semver tags

Attention: Some features might break existing CI configs in BSP projects. Also the following tests would still be helpful:

  • Package Deployment: Testing for cross-platform and cross-version (Yocto) support as required/feasible
  • Release Trigger Conditions: Testing of regex conditions for actual use case with new branching model
Here is an example for the content of the `.gitlab-ci.yml` of the `build-ktn-imx` repo using this 
include:
  - project: 'sw/yocto/yocto-ktn'
    ref: feature/yocto-ci-improvements
    file:
      - '/ci/yocto-ktn-build.yml'
