snap: Fetch tags for snap builds in CI & mention stable channel in README

ppd · phkahler · commit 6bc63e92b0d9 · 2021-09-03T18:44:21.000-04:00
The snaps use git describe to determine
their grade (stable/devel). Fetch the tags to
make this possible.

Point users to the official release in the stable channel in README.md.
