Gitlab doesn't support '#v' expansion for the links name and url:

https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/variables/where_variables_can_be_used.html#gitlab-internal-variable-expansion-mechanism

The current releases include a 'snowflake-.tar.gz' that gives a 404,
because the link provided is missing the tag part. Let's keep it
simple and produce a tar.gz with the v in the name like
snowflake-v2.6.0.tar.gz

Closes: #40282
