Add `core release` command(s) to fetch available releases through the .org API
It would be useful to be able to easily query the available releases of WordPress core through the .org API and also get the download URLs for a given update.
A use case I'm currently working on that this would benefit is https://github.com/wp-cli/wp-cli-tests/issues/51
It doesn't seem to be possible to query for arbitrary patch version through the WordPress.org API. Am I missing something, like an extra query argument or a different endpoint?
Also, the locale query for the API argument behave in an unexpected way as well. It does only produce a different result for the first (i.e. the "latest") release, all others seem to still point to en_US downloads...

Maybe @ocean90 knows more here?
Can you tell me what endoints you are trying? What's the request looking like? To retrieve all available versions you could use https://api.wordpress.org/core/stable-check/1.0/.
The current code uses https://api.wordpress.org/core/version-check/1.7/ it seems.
Yes, indeed, I'm using the version-check endpoint right now. If I have a specific version from stable-check endpoint, can I:
- retrieve detailed information for that specific version through
version-check/some other endpoint with similar information? - specify which locale to check for?
The call to the stable-check is really slow and often times out. Is that endpoint not being cached?
@ocean90 Do you know whether there might be a caching issue with stable-check ^^^?
There's no caching for that endpoint.
Shouldn't that be changed, then? It seems slow and unreliable.
@ocean90 Is there any update on this regarding the missing caching on the stable-check endpoint?
