    Webpage: link to tarball of most recent commit added
    
    Just before merging any commit into Gnuastro's 'master' branch, I do a test
    build, and run 'make check' to make sure everything is workingly finely. As
    a side-effect (since a tarball is created in the process), I put the most
    recent tarball in a fixed URL that people who find bugs or suggest tasks
    can get the version with their suggestion implemented.
    
    Until now, but this URL is useful for other people who always want the most
    recent version, or when they loose/forget the URL address. So In the "Test
    releases" section of the webpage, I added a few sentences and put the URL
    there so it is publicly available.
    
    This was suggested by Joanna Sakowska.

+Only one or two of these will be available between the offical releases, but 
they are also archived in the URLs above.

+Just note that the contents of this tarball constantly change with every 
commit in the Gnuastro history.
+So the tarball can be reproduced by <a

it will not be archived for future direct downloads.
