Scala 3.6.2 download no longer contains scala3-3.6.2 folder

This broke the sbt/docker-sbt#313 build

Feel free to close this if on purpose. Will work around it in the sbt docker image.

The previous intermediate directory was introduced by a bug, we've observed and fixed this issue in coursier as well coursier/apps#256
Probably a won't fix

This is worse, extracted ./bin/scala bash script does not find scala-cli.jar since it does not correctly find ../libexec directory relative to itself. It is instead expecting to find scala-cli.jar in the same directory where the scala shell script is located.

There's already fix for that, would be shipped in 3.6.3 #22185

Seems like it was our mistake, as we're getting more reports of problems related to this issue.

We're going to revert layout of archives to the state from before release 3.6 and follow the Well formed SDK archives format described by Sdkman

We should be able to repackage and replace release artifacts for a hotfix for 3.6.2
