Make docker gitea/gitea:v1.16-dev etc refer to the latest build on that branch (#18551)

* Make docker gitea/gitea:v1.16-dev etc refer to the latest build on that branch

One of the problems with our current docker tagging is that although we
have strict version tags, latest and dev we do not have a way for docker
users to track the current release branch. This PR simply suggests that
we use the 1.x-dev tag for these and we build and push these. This will
give users who want or need unreleased bug fixes the option of tracking
the pre-release version instead of simply jumping to dev.
