In the bug fixes per release tool, we got a list of bug reports that
were fixed by a commit using a regular expression that pulled the
number from `#NUMBER`.
However in specific situations, this resulted in the retrieval of the
wrong issue numbers, and ultimately a mis-classification of a
fix commit.
For example 778b1efd84 contains `Fixes blender/blender-manual#NUMBER`
We were extracting the NUMBER from this and treating it as if it was
a bug report for the `blender/blender` repository, which means it
points to the wrong bug report.
This commit fixes this issue by taking a simple approach of only
checking for report numbers that match the format:
`SPACE#NUMBER`, which will eliminate cases like
`blender/blender-manual#NUMBER`.

This commit updates the bug fixes per release script with small changes
to the readme.
- It removes the example script for Blender 4.4 as it's no longer
under development.
- It updates the example for Blender 4.5 to include the 4.4 backports task

Occasionally users will fill out a bug report with the fields like:
```
Broken: A
Working: Also Broken in B
```
This can lead to bug fixes per release script classifying the report
incorrectly.
This commit adds a small check that sees if "broken" is in the working
field, and if it is, then avoid adding the versions in that working
field to the list of working versions used for classifcation since we
can't trust it.

While sorting reports for the "list of bug fixes for old bug reports",
occasionally triagers have encountered a report that's too difficult or time consum
ng to track down the correct information for.
In cases like this, it was decided that just ignoring the bug report
was a better option, and so this commit adds a option to do this by
adding the string `skip_for_bug_fix_release_notes` to the report.
preferable as `<!-- skip_for_bug_fix_release_notes -->` since it's
invisible.

If a user wants to expand the "bug fixes per release" script with
new classifications, it requires them searching for and expanding a few
lists spread through out the code.
This annoying for anyone not familiar with the code, so refactor these
lists out to the "Constants" section to make it easier to see and
expands.
With the transition from 4.4 Alpha to 4.4 Beta and 4.5 Alpha, a few
small changes could be made to the "list of bug fixes per release" tool
to make it more reliable:
- 4.5 is added to the list so it can detect reports made from
Blender 4.5.
- Update the example usage to of the script to be the exact arguments
triagers should use for 4.4 Beta and 4.5 Alpha so triagers just need to
copy and paste the arguments to the command line.
With 4.4 Beta and 4.5 Alpha, small updates to the "list of bug fixes
per release" tool could be made to make the script.
