Christoph Reiter e73e164c3c Revert "CI: add a workflow dispatch option to build from staging"
This reverts commit cdda7214928f37b9cd0a521ab2daac67528203e4.

Despite it defaulting to false it somehow is true when starting via the github UI.
Not sure why right now, so reverting.

FAQ

What's the difference between the installer and the archives?

The installer provides some additional features such as installing shortcuts, registering an uninstaller, a GUI for selecting the installation path and automatically running a login shell at the end to initialize the MSYS2 environment.

If you unpack the archives and run a login shell once, you will get a functionally equivalent MSYS2 installation.

What is contained in the installer/archives?

It contains the base package and all its dependencies. You can list the contained packages using: pactree base -lu | sort
