Update release workflow: support main, enable manual dispatch, generate .releaserc.json, use Node 20

[mokesano]

Motivation

• Ensure the release workflow works for repositories using main and allow manual triggers via workflow_dispatch.
• Use a stable Node version (20) and avoid creating/updating a local package.json by installing packages with --no-save.
• Centralize semantic-release configuration into a generated .releaserc.json and remove unnecessary @semantic-release/git usage.

Description

• Added main to the push.branches list and enabled workflow_dispatch to allow manual runs.
• Updated the Node setup to use node-version: '20' and changed the install step to npm install --no-save instead of initializing a package with npm init -y.
• Added a step that generates a .releaserc.json with branches, repositoryUrl, and the semantic-release plugins, and removed @semantic-release/git from the installed plugins list.
• Kept actions/checkout@v4 with fetch-depth: 0 and retained the npx semantic-release execution using the GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable.

Testing

• No automated tests were added or modified because this change only updates the CI workflow configuration.
• The updated workflow was not executed as part of this PR, so there are no CI run results to report.

node-version: '20'

Use a supported Node version for semantic-release

With the install step still pulling unpinned semantic-release, this workflow now runs the current release under Node 20; the semantic-release Node version documentation states it requires Node 22.14.0 or higher, so release jobs on main/master will fail before creating tags/releases. The previous lts/* setup would resolve to a supported LTS version, so pinning this to 20 regresses the workflow.
