Automatically bump `mixxx` on 2.4 branch #60

Since scheduled GitHub workflows unfortunately only run on the default branch, we'd have to modify main's workflow accordingly, e.g.

diff --git a/.github/workflows/update-mixxx.yml b/.github/workflows/update-mixxx.yml
index 0715f62..500cc06 100644

The issue is that the build currently depends on a workflow_run trigger, for which I am not sure if it triggers in the way we would expect across branches: Given that the scheduled workflows run on main, 2.4's build workflow would likely not end up being triggered. We might be able to work around that by using e.g. a repository_dispatch event, but I am not sure if workflows on non-default branches will receive these events. This would be something to investigate.
