[Suggestion] Prepare to deal with `sailfishos/ssu` PR #16
DESCRIPTION
An unannounced and unreleased Sailfish OS version ("4.6") will change the way versions are handled in the ssu utility.
I imagine this may have an impact on how Installer handles/must handle OBS repository information, hence this issue.

Please use https://github.com/sailfishos-chum/sailfishos-chum-gui/issues/270 as the main, tracking issue for this.
This has been addressed in the SailfishOS:Chum GUI app as well as the SailfishOS:Chum GUI Installer and the Storeman Installer.
It still needs to be thoroughly checked if Storeman should to be adapted, or if it never sets or queries its own download (OBS-) repository and leaves setting this repo to the Storeman Installer (which is already adapted); in the latter case there is nothing to do than to close this issue with appropriate reasoning.
Likely that (i.e. "nothing to do") is the case, because both search terms build.sailfishos.org and build.merproject.org yield no hit in source code (only the README.md):

I'm going to add that this may be incoming for lesser releases also:

... but it seems to have gone over well for 4.6, it probably will be fine for the others too.
