Description
Not all plugin authors are comfortable with SVN, it would be beneficial if we could provide the ability for plugin updates to be uploaded through a form and/or an API.
Any uploads would be committed to SVN as trunk, tagged, and the existing release process would then occur.

This is a work-in-progress, PR'ing it for sharing and future work.
This could be used by https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6086 (Allow uploading ZIPs for plugin updates, to reduce friction) and as the underlying low-level basis for https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6087 (Provide a GitHub integration).
This includes some things that will need to be changed before it can be used, such as the SVN auth, whether to overwrite trunk, whether those things should be an option or not, etc.
_Please note: This PR existing is not a confirmation that it'll be merged anytime soon._
And also #6087 for official GitHub support.
