Keep track of deployment advancement and production status

This issue is about extending release-tools to keep track of the ongoing deployment.

With #1094 (closed) we will trigger production checks at specific checkpoints during a production deployment. (TL;DR: implementation recap in #1241 (comment 434063792))

We need a proper way to handle those checks in release-tools.

At the moment, the baking time message is the closest thing to what we need

Proposed implementation

  • Modify ReleaseTools::Tasks::AutoDeploy::CheckProduction to accept some additional ENV parameters

    • DEPLOYMENT_CHECK: will be set to "true" to trigger the deployment advanced status
    • DEPLOYMENT_STEP: a string describing in which point of the deployment we are at the moment (this is url-encoded)
    • DEPLOYER_JOB_URL: the URL of the deployer job triggering the check

  • If DEPLOYMENT_CHECK==true a new ReleaseTools::Promotion::Manager#deployment_check method will be invoked

  • The baking time foreword is replaced with a specific message

    :an_emoji_that_makes_sense: Production deployment reached ${DEPLOYMENT_STEP}
Package version: `the version`
Pipeline: ${DEPLOYER_JOB_URL}

  • Rework the summary line with something like The deployment can continue/Please @release-manager investigate if it's worth halting the deployment

  • checks are ok in the current format
