Subject: [PATCH 1/3] Add manually-triggered release workflow

Bumps version (patch/minor/major), runs lint and tests, commits, tags,
and publishes a GitHub release with auto-generated notes. The pushed
v* tag fires the existing ECR build workflow.

Subject: [PATCH 3/3] Explicitly dispatch ECR workflow after release

Tags pushed by GITHUB_TOKEN don't trigger other workflows (GitHub
safeguard against recursive runs), so the ECR build's push:tags:v*
trigger never fires. workflow_dispatch is exempt from that rule, so
fire it explicitly with the new tag as --ref.
