Move major tag update (e.g. v6) into the release workflow as a conditional step, gated on semantic-release actually publishing. This avoids the GITHUB_TOKEN limitation where events from the default token don't trigger separate workflows. Also reverts @semantic-release/github from .releaserc since we no longer rely on the release event to trigger a separate workflow.
This plugin creates proper GitHub Release pages with changelogs, which is valuable independently of workflow triggering.
