While currently unkeyworded, the intent is that eventually
`beta` will only ever be keyworded `testing` (i.e. not stabilised)
and will enable us to catch regressions on esoteric systems and
report them upstream before a stable release is cut (and we
have to do the same thing anyway, but with revbumps).
All `beta` channel releases will share a single `SLOT`, i.e.
1.85.0_beta20250208 has `SLOT` 1.85.0, the same as the eventual
`stable` release. Installing different `beta` releases side-by-side
is not supported via Portage (and it's unlikely that they will stay
in-tree for long once superseded). This enables straightforward
`ver_test` comparisons to reflect a particular 'version'.
`nightly` is a VCS sources ebuild template which will soon be the
only way to get `nightly` Rust via Portage (from source, anyway,
a followup commit will add a 'dev-lang/rust-bin' nightly binary
release, using upstream infrastructure). Nightly can only be built
by the `beta` channel release.
