john-okeefe 451aa48aec ci(release): auto-generate release notes via git-cliff
Release / build-and-push (push) Successful in 2m42s
Replace the image-only tag pipeline with a full release workflow that also
publishes a Gitea Release whose body is the annotated tag's message,
generated from Conventional Commits by git-cliff. No hand-written release
notes are required.

- cliff.toml: group commits (Features, Bug Fixes, Refactor, Documentation,
  Tests, Miscellaneous Tasks) with scopes and short-SHA links; emit only the
  current tag's section rather than the full history.
- .gitea/workflows/release.yml: tag-driven. Reads the release body from the
  annotated tag (git tag -l --format), so the tag message and release body are
  a single source of truth. Idempotent create/PATCH; prints the Gitea API
  error body on failure so a 403 names the missing token scope instead of
  failing silently. Adds a workflow_dispatch tag input so manual re-runs
  target the right tag instead of the default branch.
- Makefile: release VERSION=vX.Y.Z generates notes via git cliff --latest
  against a throwaway tag, then creates an annotated tag with
  --cleanup=verbatim so the markdown group headers are preserved (git's
  default cleanup strips lines starting with "#").
- release: project-attached wrapper accepting a positional version arg
  (./release 0.3.0 or ./release v0.3.0) and auto-prefixing v, for ergonomic
  one-command releases.
