godot-debug-builds Godot 4.4 support

Hello, I was wondering if there is a possibility of releasing the debug builds for Godot 4.4? I see in the commits there is support for it, but I can't find the binaries in the Releases tab.

I had started to compile 4.4 binaries but reinstalled my PC before I uploaded to GitHub Releases, so I'll need to compile them again.

For your and future visitors' information: You can acquire godot debug builds by forking the engine repo, creating a branch from the version tag you are interested in, and patching CI to upload the debug image. Then, by simply pushing the patch to your fork, GH actions will create the image for you and let you download it. This takes roughly 45 minutes.

Example patch for godot 4.5 (linux): https://github.com/Inve1951/godot/commit/2d769c9e2a2c7fb32098c1c2f0544b64a77c0ba7 Resulting CI run: https://github.com/Inve1951/godot/actions/runs/18076608187 The download link is at the bottom. Because of the (configurable) retention settings GH will invalidate it 60 days later.

Edit: It's a little tricky to spot in the diff. Basically, just add artifact: true to the debug matrix configuration.
