Add release-close workflow; rename publish-docs
Add .github/workflows/release-close.yml to perform post-release closing
tasks (checkout tag, run post-release script, manual instructions for blog, PR
merge, snapshot deploy, website updates, and announcement email). Rename
.github/workflows/publish-docs.yml to
.github/workflows/release-publish-docs.yml and update the workflow name to
"Release - Publish Documentation" to reflect its release-focused purpose.
