d/create-upstream-tarballs.py: Overhaul output
Since the first main usage of this script upstream has changed there
versions strings.
Since a while all ESR versions have a suffix 'esr' and the beta versions
will finallize in a main version number without a character 'b' in the
version. The existing script was not able to handle this.
Also we need every time the new ESR version will arise the tarballs
for the new ESR but also for the previous ESR version. The whole script got
rewritten to collect more data internally and the user can choose from
various possible source tarballs.
The output with the various optiosn to chose from looks now this:
