Fix en-US builds

en-US builds failed the wrong build number was used in the "partialVersions" field (17.0esrbuild1 vs 17.0esrbuild2). To fix, did the following:

• Fixed the release config by hand on the default and production branches of buildbot-configs (https://hg.mozilla.org/build/buildbot-configs/rev/916e0d32fbee and https://hg.mozilla.org/build/buildbot-configs/rev/21ebd8a63da9)
