We've had cases where manage-projects took longer to complete than
the zuul config updates, so when the content was pushed into Gerrit
it fired tag events which zuul saw as triggers for release jobs. In
most cases those jobs _will_ fail, but I'm worried about the corner
corner case where they don't and then we have a mess to clean up.
Not adding release jobs in the same change which instructs import of
another repo already within our infrastructure (such that release
artifacts of the donor repo might get overwritten) seems like a
sane compromise.
