Instead of warnings that we're using version x.y.z instead of x.y.z, suppress those pointless warnings and empty lines so the warnings are cleaner and easier to address. Related to release of 1.3.1 (RHIDP-4343)

Nitpicks from a first time user of this script.

The help says:

Generate updated table of dynamic plugins from content in janus-idp/backstage-plugins and backstage-showcase repos, for the specified branch

-b, --ref-branch : Reference branch against which plugin versions should be incremented, like 1.1.x or main

But I assume 1.1.x is an obsolete branch name.

Reading this, I needed to:

1. Search the actual URL of both repositories.
2. Look at the repositories to identify the available branch names.
3. Choose the correct branch name. I guessed it is release-1.3 because we use the same naming convention in this repository.

I would appreciate that the help:

• Displays the full URL of both repositories.
• Displays available branch names.
• Displays a hint for the branch name that makes most sense in my current situation (release-1.3)
