Support branch push as a trigger for propose-downstream

[lachmanfrantisek]

Requested by @pbrezina

Some users want to trigger the propose-downstream workflow on each commit to a specified branch.

TODO:

• [ ] Mark the handler to support the commit trigger (via reacts_to).
  • https://github.com/packit/packit-service/blob/639c39422155fedc296892dcd5c2a90791be6797/packit_service/worker/handlers/distgit.py#L101-L107
• [ ] Make sure the handler is run only for a specified branch.
  • See the CoprBuildHandler for inspiration: https://github.com/packit/packit-service/blob/639c39422155fedc296892dcd5c2a90791be6797/packit_service/worker/handlers/copr.py#L115-L127
• [ ] In packit, improve the api.sync_release method to accept needed information (e.g. a new branch argument).
  • [ ] Make sure it takes the correct state of the repository. (Including the spec-version. There might be some code that makes sense only to release.)
  • [ ] Provide env.vars. in actions so the user can use this when determining version and sources.
  • [ ] Might be useful to add a new CLI option as well so it can be tested more easily.
• [ ] Use the new argument when calling the Packit API.
• [ ] Provide feedback via commit-statuses. (e.g. Task accepted, Sync in progress, PRs created)
  • It would be nice to create a table with the PR links in the check run description.
• [ ] Document this feature.

We did not prioritize this in over a year so I am going to close.

You can always push a tag in the branch that will trigger the propose-downstream process.
