chore: move UPSTREAM_TAG out of build.yml into plain file - #2

Conversation
GITHUB_TOKEN cannot push changes to workflow files without the `workflows` permission, causing the daily update-upstream-tag job to fail. Moving UPSTREAM_TAG into a plain UPSTREAM_TAG file (same pattern as package-linux/prepare_source) means the auto-update workflow only touches a plain file — no special permission needed. build.yml reads the tag via `cat UPSTREAM_TAG` after checkout. update_upstream.yml writes to UPSTREAM_TAG instead of build.yml.
