mise ls-remote zig shows `master` as a valid option but it does not work

[chasinglogic]

Describe the bug

I would like to run zig master as that is recommended by https://ziglang.org

It seems that mise supports this with mise ls-remote zig showing a master version but when I attempt to install it I get an HTTP error as the download URL seems incorrect.

To Reproduce

!! ~ λ mise install zig@master
Error:
   0: HTTP status client error (403 Forbidden) for url (https://ziglang.org/download/master/zig-macos-aarch64-master.tar.xz)

Location:
   src/http.rs:61

Version:
   2024.7.4 macos-arm64 (b9bc7df 2024-07-19)

Backtrace omitted. Run with RUST_BACKTRACE=1 environment variable to display it.
Run with RUST_BACKTRACE=full to include source snippets.

Expected behavior

I expected mise to install the zig nightly build.

Additional context

I think zig have changed the format of their URLs. But if I read this PR correctly then mise should pull it down from the /downloads/index.json which has the correct URL.

Add any other context about the problem here. Consider running mise with --debug or --trace for extra debug info.

Ah my confusion is answered after actually reading the code I found I need to use ref:master instead of master.

I think it is a bug that ls-remote returns master when that's not a valid value. Would you like a PR to remove it?

[roele]

@chasinglogic I agree that this might mislead people to think that master is a installable version. IMO it should not be shown with ls-remote. A pull request would be highly appreciated.
