Dynamic upgrade scenario

What does this MR do and why?

Adding special patterns for dynamic upgrade scenarios These are not explicitly defined in the .deployment-base file but are supported by the script

supported patterns are:

• upgrade-from-<initial_revision> (implicit: the update revision will be the current commit)
• upgrade-to-<update_revision> (implicit: the initial revision will be the current commit)

revision format can include alphanumeric characters, dots, dashes and slashes

• e.g., upgrade-from-1.5.x
• e.g., upgrade-to-release/2.0

Theses revision are treated as GIT revision during the deployment and must exist in git.

Special patterns are also supported:

• upgrade-from-prev-tag
• upgrade-from-prev-release-branch

⚠️ Theses special patterns are only usable in MRs, they will try to determine automatically the proper revision based on the target branch of the MR.

• prev-tag will try to find the latest tag on the CI_MERGE_REQUEST_TARGET_BRANCH_NAME branch
• prev-release-branch will try to find the previous release branch based on the CI_MERGE_REQUEST_TARGET_BRANCH_NAME branch (e.g. for main the previous release branch is the most recent release-x branch, and for release-1.5 the previous release branch is release-1.4)

---

I also changed the way we defined the allowed scenario, we'll now merge the override via env var and the special pattern + all locally defined scenario

Global config for deployment pipelines

• autorun pipelines
• allow failure on pipelines
• record sylvactl events

Notes:

• Enabling autorun will make deployment pipelines to be run automatically without human interaction
• Disabling allow failure will make deployment pipelines mandatory for pipeline success.
• if both autorun and allow failure are disabled, deployment pipelines will need manual triggering but will be blocking the pipeline

Be aware: after configuration change, pipeline is not triggered automatically. Please run it manually (by clicking the run pipeline button in Pipelines tab) or push new code.
