REFERENCE_TYPE and REFERENCE_RELEASE_TYPE may be ambiguous when put together. Shall we rename one of them? Note that renaming REFERENCE_RELEASE_TYPE may break backward compatibility.

What about REFERENCE_TYPE -> REFERENCE_RELEASE_TARGET? or any better suggestions?

REFERENCE_RELEASE_TARGET looks good to me. On the other hand I'm afraid in the end we have to rename REFERENCE_RELEASE_TYPE anyway.

Had an offline discussion with @superwhd , I'll rename REFERENCE_RELEASE_TYPE to REFERENCE_THREAD_VERSION to avoid confusion.

I'll rename REFERENCE_RELEASE_TYPE to REFERENCE_THREAD_VERSION in a separate PR to limit the scope of this PR.

I think it's still possible to merge these two if branches into one.
You already have the options for different platforms of the same version number like build_${version}_options_${platform}. Maybe you can build a string to refer to the variable name. I'm not super familiar with this shell syntax but it seems to work.
Just an example:
build=build_1_3_1
build_1_3_1_options="-DOT_VERSION=1.3.1"
options_var_name="$build"_options
options=${!options_var_name}

This PR introduces the option REFERENCE_TYPE=(OTBR|CLI) so it's possible to build CLI reference release and OTBR(host+RCP) reference release separately. If this option is not provided all types of reference release will be built as before.
ot-br-posix commit id is added to the output path.
Added support for building 1.3.1 reference release with REFERENCE_PLATFORM=nrf52840. It can be used when building OTBR reference release so the same openthread commit is used to build RCP and host. (If we use ncs as platform then the openthread commit is hardcoded in
sdk-nrfso it may differ with the host image)
