Do we create releases with GHA? Not on this repo I don’t think

In today's Build WG call we were discussing why #57994 didn't get picked up before #57896 landed. Part of the discussion was the possibility that opening the PR via GitHub Actions (if that was how it was opened) may not trigger other GitHub workflows.

Ah you meant opening the release proposal PR, not creating the GH release

#58226 was opened by the workflow and triggered the workflows.

#58226 was opened by the workflow and triggered the workflows.

To be more precise, opening it did not trigger the workflows, marking it as Ready for reviews did.

Seems to be working as intended to me.
