Unity 'Check for Updates' feature won't work
How to reproduce:
1. Open an outdated version of Unity
2. Create a new project
3. Check for updates in 'Help->Check for Updates'
Expected result: Unity 'Check for Updates' feature always suggests latest stable release of Unity.
Actual result: Unity 'Check for Updates' feature fails to check for a new version and shows that the current version is the latest or claims that the latest version is the one which is actually not.
Reproducible with - 5.5.0a6, 5.5.5f1, 5.6.0a1, 5.6.3p4, 2017.1.0a1, 2017.1.0b9, 2017.1.2f1, 2017.2.0a1, 2017.2.0f1
(Newer versions were not tested as the latest stable Unity release as of now is 2017.2.0f2)
Note: The update system seems stuck at 2017.2.0b8. It is promoted on 5.6, 2017.1 and 2017.2. If release is past b8 stage, then it is considered to be the latest version.
