Pull request overview

This PR updates the release pipeline so GitHub Releases remain drafts while GoReleaser uploads artifacts, then publishes the release only after the workflow completes—supporting workflows that need post-build steps while staying compatible with GitHub “immutable releases”.

Changes:

  • Configure GoReleaser to create GitHub Releases as drafts (release.draft: true).
  • Add a workflow step to publish the draft release at the end of the release job via gh release edit.
