[QGIS-Developer] Experimental flag

[Lova Andriarimalala]

Dear Paolo,

Thank you very much for reporting this.

The experimental checkbox in the upload and new version form has been
removed, as discussed in the issue at
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Plugins-Website/issues/71. However, it
appeared that the new version form was not handling the experimental
attribute correctly. A new fix has been submitted to address this issue:
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Plugins-Website/pull/99.

Uploading a new version as experimental should now work correctly using the
same workflow.

Best regards,
Lova Andriarimalala
