Pull request overview
This PR migrates the repository’s release automation to semantic-release, separating build and release concerns by moving Docker publishing and GitHub release creation into a dedicated workflow.
Changes:
- Add
semantic-releaseconfiguration via.releaserc.json(main branch,v${version}tag format, GitHub releases). - Introduce a new
Releaseworkflow that runs semantic-release onmainpushes and publishes versioned +latestDocker images to GHCR when a new release is published. - Simplify the existing
build-publishworkflow to build-only (removing tag-triggered publish and release creation logic).

Context
As part of our effort to mature the CI of this repository, this PR proposes the full migration to formalised
semantic-release.This PR reworks the release mechanisms to be much more simple and automated. Developers simply need to trigger the "Create Release" workflow to trigger the creation of a new release. Version number will be calculated using conventional commits.
