Add GitHub releases on tagged version

[Kamaruddheen]

Description

Configure GitHub releases to be created automatically whenever a new version tag is pushed to the repo. The release should compile release notes based on commits since last release and attach build artifacts.

Acceptance Criteria

• Release created on PR merge (e.g. v1.2.3)
• Release notes tab populated with commit messages since prior release
• Native binaries/artifacts uploaded to release as attachments
• Manual editing allowed on auto-generated release drafts before publishing

Tasks

• Research GitHub actions to hook into push tag event
• Script generating changelog from commit messages
• Configure CI builds to produce artifacts on tag
• Create action workflow for creating release on tag push

Bonus Ideas

• Customizable release note categories (fixes, features, etc.)
