Automatically run "Test Next" on CICD build

Hi,

This is probably a dumb and easy question, but what's the proper way to set up Test Next Minor/Major to be run in the PR build or CICD without making modifcations that update-system-files overrides?

If you wish to test your apps against next minor/major, you can set up buildModes with conditional settings. E.g. if you add a build mode "nextMajor", you can specify the following settings:

    "ConditionalSettings": [
        {
            "buildModes": [
                "nextMajor"
            ],
            "settings": {
                "artifact": "////nextmajor",
                "cacheImageName": "",
                "versioningStrategy": 15
            }
        }
    ]

This setup will make sure whenever the apps are built in CICD/PR Build, that an extra build job, targeting next major, is run.
