Changes
Add support for stable versions before 1.8.0.
Why
I added Archive of Rust Stable Standalone Installers page in #733 and #770.
Currently it works for all versions >= 1.8.0. Versions <= 1.7.0 do not have manifests. See Zulip for details.
So in this PR I hard code the available platforms for stable versions before 1.8.0. I got the list of the supported platforms for each version by trying to download (similar to what rustup does for them). I tested that I am able to download the artifacts from the final Forge page.
