Split the workflow into a build job (version checks, build, tests, artifact) and a publish job that runs only for vX.Y.Z tags: it publishes the VSIX to the Marketplace and then creates the GitHub release with the VSIX attached. Manual runs build and test only.

vX.Y.Ztag now publishes to the Visual Studio Marketplace and creates the GitHub release with the VSIX, without a manual approval step. Manual runs of the Release workflow only build and test.
