Pull request overview

This PR updates the release automation so GoReleaser creates GitHub Releases as drafts first, and the workflow explicitly publishes the release only after the GoReleaser step (and any subsequent workflow steps) have completed—helping avoid issues with GitHub’s immutable release behavior.

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 ... --draft=false.
