The previous development policy was to only repackage on each release. This prevented contributors from doing casual beta
testing by simply referencing the action as arduino/create-changelog@main in a workflow.

This policy change is implemented via:

  • Update development and release workflow documentation.
  • Add a CI workflow to check for forgotten packaging.
  • Repackage the current code.
  • Adjust the integration testing workflow to account for new policy.

This aligns the development policy of this project with that of the arduino/setup-task and arduino/arduino-lint-action actions, which have successfully used continuous packaging for some time now (arduino/setup-task#16, arduino/arduino-lint-action#30).

The commands were prefixed by "#", evidently to indicate a command prompt. But that is the shell comment syntax, so it
is very unintuitive.
The development process for contributors follows a reasonably linear set of distinct steps, so this is an appropriate
way of organizing the information.

On every push and pull request that affects relevant files, check to make sure the ncc packaging is up to date.
On every push and pull request that affects relevant files, run the integration tests.
