Do not checkout release commit in scala 2.13 (#8291)

* Do not checkout release commit in scala 2.13

At least for now, this fails because older commits don’t have the
necessary infrastructure so far. At some point we probably do want to
run this on release commits but that can wait a bit and this unblocks
release PRs for bugfix releases.
