What this PR does / why we need it:
This is an alternative solution to #49884. The goal is to be able to pull releases that were built by bazel jobs (both presubmit and postsubmit builds), which currently fail our regex validation against the version string.
This implementation is a simple "I know what I'm doing" breakglass option to turn regex validation off, whereas #49884 was to extend our validation to support the new formats of bazel build jobs. I'm testing the waters to see if this is a more palatable solution.
