#14739: RecommendedTBBVersions does not advertise alpha versions anymore

 As per Tor [https://blog.torproject.org/blog/tor-browser-45a3-released
 blog], TBB {{{4.5a3}}} is currently considered alpha, while TBB
 {{{4.0.3}}} is considered stable.

 [https://www.torproject.org/projects/torbrowser/RecommendedTBBVersions
 RecommendedTBBVersions] currently reads.

 {{{
 [
 "4.0.3",
 "4.0.3-Linux",
 "4.0.3-MacOS",
 "4.0.3-Windows",
 "4.5a3",
 "4.5a3-Linux",
 "4.5a3-MacOS",
 "4.5a3-Windows"
 ]
 }}}

 This breaks updaters such as [https://github.com/micahflee/torbrowser-
 launcher torbrowser-launcher] ([https://github.com/micahflee/torbrowser-
 launcher/issues/169 bug report]).

 Questions:

 * Are the {{{-alpha}}}, {{{-beta}}}, {{{-rc}}} suffixed gone forever?
 * Or is {{{4.5a3}}} considered stable enough?
 * Or is the new RecommendedTBBVersions version format: "stable version at
 top, alpha on bottom"?
