Non-release versions that are built from source without a VERSION file specifying any particular version end up with a development version like "devel go1.25-67e0681aef Thu Apr 24 12:17:27 2025 -0700". Right now those versions are correctly determined to be non-release because they don't have a "go" prefix, instead they have a "devel " prefix. In preparation of being able to move the "devel" substring, add a check that said substring isn't present anywhere, since it is certain not to be included in any released Go version we publish at https://go.dev/dl/. For #73372.
