Automating the release process

[fthouraud]

Hi 👋

Currently, the release process is manual and cumbersome. We could extend our use of the GH Actions to automate some of the steps if not all.

We have an example on ekino/smuggler of what could be done. Story short:

• a manually triggered workflow creates a PR with version bump and changelogs update,
• an automated workflow on tags to package, upload to NPM, and create a release.

Maybe the changelog is nice to have but automating the release process is mandatory.

Of course, we can discuss here what we could do better if anyone has an idea.
