Latest tag artifacts download a permalink
Description
Currently, there is no direct way to download the latest artifact easily, one have to navigate through pipeline, identify the build by tag and proceed with the download. This becomes even difficult if we need to include the latest download file into the README, so everytime a new release is out we also have to update the README post tag creation to update the right build id for downloading artifacts.
Proposal
There could be a way that identifies a latest release and references automatically to its build and the artifacts, this way can we have a permalink like
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/download/release/latest.zip
This way it will always be fixed no matter what, it would be available and easy for publishing out.
