Create a common function to write resulting JSON files to the releases directory.
It makes this task simpler to read and maintain, while making it modifiable at a central point in the future.
One example of such modification could be the sorting of the versions in a uniform way for all the scripts.
This creates a common function to fetch HTTP URLs, with enhanced capabilities (retry, use of a known User-Agent).
It makes scripts that need those capabilities simpler, while improving other scripts.
This commit also fixes some scripts that did not log properly (cos.py, eks.py, haproxy.py, palo-alto-networks.py, rhel.py, ros.py, unrealircd.py).
- Get cycles URL by parsing https://www.haproxy.org/download/:
- This way the script does not have to be updated each time a new minor version is released.
- The old algorithm was missing some versions (such as 1.6.x).
- Use a GitHub actions log group to wrap the script logs.
- Display version like the other scripts.
