Rollup merge of #93128 - pietroalbini:pa-verify-stable-version-number, r=Mark-Simulacrum

Add script to prevent point releases with same number as existing ones

This will hopefully prevent what happened today with #93110 and #93121, where we built point release artifacts without changing version numbers, thus requiring another PR to change the version number.
