Set release channel on non-dist builders

Toolstate publication only runs if the channel is "nightly" and
previously the toolstate builders did not know that the channel was
nightly (since they are not dist builders).

A look through bootstrap seems to indicate that nothing should directly
depend on the channel being set to `-dev` on the test builders, though
this may cause some problems with UI tests (if for some reason they're
dumping the channel into stderr), but we cannot find evidence of such so
hopefully this is fine.
