Release commits and tags are now pushed using the GitHub API by default.

Replace the commit-mode input with the boolean push-with-git-cli input. Set push-with-git-cli: true to continue using the Git CLI.

Regardless of the push mode, custom GitHub tokens must be passed explicitly through the github-token input. The GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable and credentials configured by actions/checkout or embedded in remote URLs are not substitutes for this input. When the Git CLI is enabled, github-token takes precedence over those repository credentials.
