Create jobs for the release-1.2 branch

[ykakarap]

Hey folks,
The release-1.2 branch is going to be created. Now we can setup the jobs in test-infra for that branch.

We have to do the following:

• Add the new sig-cluster-lifecycle-cluster-api-1.2 dashboard group and dashboard in https://github.com/kubernetes/test-infra/blob/ff46c2790d6d0f795a5aacaa96ecd307da230605/config/testgrids/kubernetes/sig-cluster-lifecycle/config.yaml
• Copy cluster-api-periodics-main.yaml, cluster-api-periodics-main-upgrades.yaml and cluster-api-presubmits-main.yaml and name the new files cluster-api-periodics-release-1.2.yaml, cluster-api-periodics-release-1.2-upgrades.yaml and cluster-api-presubmits-release-1.2.yaml
• Adjust the jobs in the copied files for the release branch, i.e.:
  • Rename the jobs, e.g.: periodic-cluster-api-test-main => periodic-cluster-api-test-release-1-2 (the hyphen in 1-2 is important, 1.2 wouldn't be a valid job name)
  • Change extra_refs[].base_ref to release-1.2
  • Change annotations.testgrid-dashboards to sig-cluster-lifecycle-cluster-api-1.2
  • Change annotations.testgrid-tab-name, e.g. capi-test-main => capi-test-release-1-2
  • For periodics additionally:
    • change interval (please use the same intervals as we use in the corresponding jobs in the release-1-0 files)
  • For presubmits additionally:
    • adjust branches: ^main$ => ^release-1.2$
