Browser-laptop: Add support for Debian Stretch

[DarkCoridor]

• Did you search for similar issues before submitting this one?

Yep. Didn't see anything.

• Describe the issue you encountered:

I tried to install the Linux package by adding a deb source via your instructions. It seems there is an error with your repo

• Platform (Debian 9 - Stretch):

• Brave Version (Brave 0.13.dev for Linux):

• Steps to reproduce:

  1. Follow your instructions
  2. Upon running sudo apt update I see a warning which makes me not want to go further

• Actual result:

The warning

Reading package lists... Done
W: The repository 'https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/brave-apt stretch Release' does not have a Release file.
N: Data from such a repository can't be authenticated and is therefore potentially dangerous to use.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.
E: Failed to fetch https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/brave-apt/dists/stretch/main/binary-amd64/Packages  403  Forbidden
E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

• Expected result:

That the Brave package is properly signed and can authenticate using your signing key.

• Will the steps above reproduce in a fresh profile? If not what other info can be added?

It should, yes.

• Is this an issue in the currently released version?

Yes.

• Can this issue be consistently reproduced?

Yes.

I'm also experiencing this issue. It would be nice for Stretch users to be able to automatically update Brave via apt given the number of bugs affecting Brave on Stretch.

Same here

Stretch is not supported (only Jessie, Trusty, Xenial, and Yakkety): https://github.com/brave/browser-laptop/blob/master/tools/upload_to_aptly See #6446 for details and a possible workaround.
