Subject: [PATCH 1/2] [ci] Don't auto push to latest tag (#31284)

By default let's stop pushing to the latest tag now that we have a
non-experimental release.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] [ci:compiler] Only add latest tag to non-experimental

It turns out npm sets the latest tag by default so simply removing it didn't change the previous behavior.

The `latest` tag is typically used for stable release versions, and other tags for unstable versions such as prereleases. Since the compiler is still in prerelease, let's set the latest tag only for non-experimental releases to help signal which version is the safest to try out.
