### Enhancement Type
Improve an existing feature
### Describe the enhancement
Support Update Channels like "Beta" in the FTBA Server type. The FTB-App automatically updates modpacks to the latest beta release however currently the server only targets the "Release" channel.
An Environment variable like `FTBA_UPDATE_CHANNEL` could be added that if set to "Beta" tracks the latest versions from the Beta channel, or if the latest Release build is newer it takes that.

Research direction
No file or test is named. Start by locating the FTBA Server type and its current Release-channel selection, then trace startup environment-variable handling; done means FTBA_UPDATE_CHANNEL supports the Beta channel while preserving the stated newer-Release behavior.
