Release steps
[x] Branch: Starting from trunk, cut a release branch named release/4.8.3

[x] Update @since: Find all new @since x.x.x / @since n.e.x.t lines and update those with the new version number, 4.8.3
[x] Generate changelog: Locally, generate the changelog by running the following Woorelease command: php woorelease.phar cl:generate --product_version=4.8.3 https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce-square/tree/trunk. Ensure the changelog updates look correct
[x] Update changelog: Take the changelog generated from the previous step and update the release PR with those changes, both in the changelog.txt file and readme.txt file
[x] Open PR: Open a new PR against trunk from the release branch, release/4.8.3
[x] Run tests: On this release PR, add the label needs: qit default tests and needs: e2e testing. This will trigger the default QIT tests (activation, API and E2E) and our E2E tests. Ensure these tests pass as well as all other applicable tests
[x] Merge: Merge the release PR into trunk
[x] Prepare ZIP: Prepare the zip by running Woorelease locally on the trunk branch: php woorelease.phar build https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce-square/tree/trunk. Make sure you are running the proper versions of node, npm and composer to ensure the built files are consistent across releases. Versions can be found in package.json
[x] Compare: Download the latest released zip and then run a diff compare against the generated zip, ensuring all expected changes are there (and no unexpected changes)
[x] Test ZIP: Take the ZIP generated from the previous step and test this locally, ensuring version numbers look correct, the changelog looks correct and the plugin installs and activates properly
