Laszlo:
  Now, all release content (Source code Zip, Submodule Zip and ShellBinPkg
Zip) are manually generated. I will submit one BZ to enhance the release
process and generate them on CI. 

  For this request, can you submit one BZ and assign it to me? So, I will do
it for new release tag edk2-stable202102. 

Thanks
Liming
