[Pulp-dev] Change to the release process

[David Davis]

Recently the release workflow was updated to use a manual trigger instead
of being triggered by a new tag[0]. This should allow us to rerun the
release workflow anytime there's a failure.

Once you pick up this change via plugin_template, you'll need to tweak your
release process. If your plugin has a step like this one:

- Create a release at https://github.com/pulp/pulp_file/releases/new from
the recent commit labeled "Release x.y.z"

Instead now, you'll need to do these steps:

- Check out master/release branch and tag the release commit (ie "Release
x.y.z"). Push the tag.
- Go to https://github.com/pulp/pulp_file/actions/workflows/release.yml to
trigger a release

Note that the release workflow will now automatically create the Github
release.
