Build and host a nightly full source tarball #169

@nhdaly:

Hi! 👋

In addition to the nightly binaries that are already built and hosted at https://julialang.org/downloads/nightlies/, is there any way we could start also building and hosting a nightly tar ball?

We (at RelationalAI) want to start building our product against the nightly builds so that we aren't stuck so far behind by regressions in a release again like we've been with julia 1.5.

But our build farm, which is built on nix, does everything via source builds. It would be amazingly helpful if we could have it pull a nightly tar ball to build julia from! Is that something that would be easy to do?

Thanks so much in advance for your consideration! :) Best, ~Nathan

@rbvermaa:

Note that our build needs the *-full tarballs, so it would be greatly appreciated if this can be published somewhere next to the binary builds.
