fix(ci): preflight release credentials and recover from an orphan tag
servuo-plugins hit both of these on its first real release run; this repo
runs the same engine, so it has the same two defects latent.

REGISTRY_USER / REGISTRY_TOKEN were empty there, yet the tag push
SUCCEEDED: actions/checkout leaves an `http.<host>.extraheader` credential
in the local git config, so `git remote set-url` to a URL with empty
credentials still authenticated through that leftover header. The release
API call had no such fallback and returned 401. Net result was the worst
available outcome — the repo tagged, no release, and a failed job.

Two fixes:

  A credential preflight, before anything is built or pushed, gated on the
  run actually intending to publish so a docs:/chore:-only merge (or this
  repo's pre-crate no-op) still passes on a repo with no secrets. It names
  the missing secrets and the scope they need instead of failing wherever
  they happen to be used first.

  Orphan-tag recovery. A tag with no release behind it means an earlier run
  died after tagging, and the old code treated any existing tag as "nothing
  to release" — so that state could never clear itself: every later run
  would see the tag and stand down, forever. The plan step now asks the API
  whether a release exists for the tag, and on 404 reuses the tag and
  publishes the release it is missing. This deliberately overrides the
  RELEASE=false the bump logic just decided, which is the whole point —
  with the tag in place there are no releasable commits after it.

  Anything other than 200/404 (network failure, bad token) is refused
  rather than guessed, since assuming "no release" would republish over a
  good one.

  The tag step now reuses an existing tag instead of failing on `git tag`,
  and the changelog for a recovery run summarizes what the tag contains
  (previous-tag..this-tag) rather than the empty range after it.

sync-project-tree gets the same preflight: its first run on main failed
with an opaque `git clone` error against `https://:@host/...` that said
nothing about a missing secret.

Verified by extracting every run block and exercising the paths: empty
secrets fail the preflight with a legible message and populated ones pass;
the no-Cargo.toml guard still short-circuits to release=false; a crate with
no tag still takes the seed path; and against real repo state, a tag with a
release stands down while an orphan tag recovers.

# Automated build + release for the Runic Gateway installer.
#
# Trigger: every push to `main` (i.e. every merged PR).
#
# Flow (two conceptual halves, kept separate on purpose):
#
# ┌── RELEASE ENGINE (language-agnostic) ─────────────────────────────┐
# │ reads: latest v* git tag + conventional-commit subjects │
# │ produces: next version, changelog, and (at the end) the release │
# └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
# ┌── RUST ADAPTER (the only Rust-specific part) ─────────────────────┐
# │ consumes: the version │
# │ produces: the artifacts (linux bin, windows exe, SHA256SUMS) │
# └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
#
# This is RunicGateway/link's release.yml with the adapter retargeted at this
# repo's crate — exactly the reuse its header anticipated. Differences from link:
#
# • The crate lives at the REPO ROOT, not in a subdirectory.
# • The crate guard (below) — this repo has no Cargo project yet.
# • Artifact names follow docs/installer/PLAN.md §3.
#
# ── Crate guard ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
# The repo is in the planning phase. With no Cargo.toml there is nothing to
# build, so the plan step forces RELEASE=false and the job exits green having
# done nothing. It starts cutting real releases the moment Phase 1 lands the
# crate — no edit required here.
#
# ── Unsigned releases ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
# Per PLAN.md §3, installer binaries are deliberately UNSIGNED: SHA256SUMS is
# the trust anchor. That makes the checksum step below load-bearing rather than
# a nicety — do not drop it, and keep SHA256SUMS attached to every release.
#
# Version bump (conventional commits since the last v* tag):
# feat!: / BREAKING CHANGE -> major feat: -> minor fix|perf: -> patch
# nothing releasable -> no release is cut
# (first ever run, no tag) -> releases the current Cargo.toml version as-is
#
# Prerequisites (Settings → Actions → Secrets on RunicGateway/installer):
# REGISTRY_USER — Gitea username the token below belongs to
# REGISTRY_TOKEN — Gitea access token with `write:repository`, so it can push
# the bump commit + tag and create the release.
# Also: `main` must accept a direct push from that user (disable branch
# protection for it, or add it as an exception) — the bump commit lands on main.
#
# The bump commit carries `[skip ci]`, so it does not re-trigger this workflow.
