Research direction

Start by reading the existing workflows under .github/ and the plugin header and Stable tag/Changelog sections in readme.txt, since the issue asks the new release.yml and .github/scripts/ to write into both. The design questions (label-driven minor/major bumps, where the changelog text comes from, when a merge counts as changing the zip) need maintainer input before coding. Done means a merge to main bumps the version, updates both files, tags, and publishes a GitHub release with stackfolio.zip attached.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

enhancement

Now: no release workflow; versions and tags are made by hand (old tags v1.0-alpha1.0, v1.0-beta.1).

Expected: release.yml and .github/scripts/ from the standard. On each merge to main that changes the zip, it bumps the version (patch, or minor/major by label), writes it and the changelog into the plugin header and readme.txt (Stable tag, Changelog), tags it and publishes a GitHub release with stackfolio.zip.
