Automates the release process: given a version like
v5.4, tags the currentmainHEAD and also force-updates the major-only tag (v5) to the same commit.New workflow:
.github/workflows/release.ymlworkflow_dispatchwith a requiredversioninput (vMAJOR.MINORformat, validated)mainv5.4) and the major tag (e.g.v5) via the GitHub APIExample: dispatching with
