Update workflow to sync and verify release branch (#249)

afinetooth · web-flow · commit e988b39f4952 · 2025-09-19T12:22:01.000-07:00
Make sure release branch always points to latest release, and add verification for release branch after tag update. Fixes issue #246 for any users who use `@release/v2` (not recommended) instead of `@v2` (recommended).
