This partially reverts f2d24b98408b48c2179b131fa4c3700dc41f5b52. Instead of disabling the channels via removing the channel mapping from the tests themselves, let's just explicitly reference the stable test in release.nix. That way it's still possible to run the beta and dev tests via something like "nix-build nixos/tests/chromium.nix -A beta" and achieve the same effect of not building beta and dev versions on Hydra.

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-16.03 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-16.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
