Add 'alpha' version for pre-releases like juliaup? #227

juliaup has an alpha channel which is used for pre-releases. As far as I can tell there is not an equivalent here? It would be great to have this. For me, the nightly channel is way too unstable, so I end up never using it. But I do want to test on upcoming versions. (without needing to make a PR for every single pre-release, which I never do)

I think both:

would solve this. Why not switch to juliaup? We get this for free then.

@IanButterworth do you know the status of your proposal and if anybody has worked on it?

I believe https://github.com/julia-actions/setup-julia/pull/234 should address this. Close?
