OK, from now on https://sourceware.org/elfutils/ftp/elfutils-latest.tar.bz2
should point to the latest release.
And https://sourceware.org/elfutils/ftp/elfutils-latest.tar.bz2.sig to
the corresponding gpg signature for the tar.bz2.

See also the attached update to the elfutils-htdocs.

I also added an upload-release.sh script that can be run to create,
sign, upload and update the links (if you are a maintainer with a
sourceware shell account).

Thanks for the suggestion.

Cheers,

Mark
