Note, that "Allow GitHub Actions to create and approve pull requests" needs to be checked for release workflow

What happened?

When releasing a new version, the release failed with the step creating the pull request for the changelog. This is due that the setting "Allow GitHub Actions to create and approve pull requests" was not set in the repository's settings.

This should be noted in the documentation.

Relevant log output or stack trace

pull request create failed: GraphQL: GitHub Actions is not permitted to create or approve pull requests (createPullRequest)
