      Use GitHub Actions to initiate releases.

      Currently, the release process is initiated via shell scripts that are executed on engineer's computers.

      Moving that to GitHub Actions would have a number of benefits:

      1. Reducing the number of manual steps
      2. Reducing reliance on desktop configurations
      3. Increasing release auditability
      4. Centralized secrets management
      5. Easier integration with GitHub services
