Stop publishing armv7 IoT Agent packages

[jszwedko]

What does this PR do?

Makes the two armv7 (armhf) IoT Agent package publish jobs manual-only instead of automatic on deploy pipelines:

• deploy_packages_iot_deb-armhf-7 (APT)
• deploy_packages_iot_rpm-armhf-7 (YUM)

Build, packaging, and quality-gate jobs for armv7 are left untouched.

Note that armv7 only applies to the IoT Agent flavor. There are no full Agent or Docker image builds for this architecture, so this is the entire publish surface.

Motivation

We're planning to drop armv7 support from the Agent. As a first, easily-reversible step, we want to stop shipping armv7 packages to customers while keeping all the build machinery in place, so we can quickly revert if we get customer complaints. We've already reached out to affected customers to collect their input.

The plan is to drop the scaffolding in a later release (likely 7.87.0).

Describe how you validated your changes

Ran dda inv linter.gitlab-ci, which validates .gitlab-ci.yml and includes across 9 CI contexts (main branch push, release branch, tag, merge queue, deploy pipelines, etc.) — all passed.

Additional Notes

Reverting is a one-line removal of the added rules: !reference [.on_deploy_manual] override in each job.
