Add and fetch all required stable branches ahead of time. This fixes a
bug, as readers that wanted to bisect a regression within a stable or
longterm series otherwise did not have them available at the right time.
This way also matches the flow somewhat better and avoids some "if you
haven't already added it" phrases that otherwise become necessary in
future changes.
