Backport: Trigger deploys to release-environments on stable branches
What does this MR do and why?
In MR !117212 (merged) we changed how the images for release-environments are generated and added a task to automatically deploy to release-environments upon merges to stable branches.
As this change was on master, it won't take effect for existing stable branches, so this MR is a backport of that change onto stable branch 15-10-stable-ee
