conventionalcommits presets with 7.x releases

[wyardley]

Hi - since the update to 7.0.1 (7.0.0 also broke with the missing constants), I'm seeing semantic-release "succeed" without actually cutting a release with our existing configuration (see below).

Is this related to the following breaking change, and if so, is there more information or a doc that explains this a bit more?

Now all presets are exports preset config factory function. conventional-changelog-preset-loader now exports new loadPreset and createPresetLoader functions. If you are using presets indirectly, using preset name, no any changes in configuration needed, just upgrade packages to latest versions.

Am I misunderstanding what indirect preset usage would look like?

My .releaserc.yaml:

branches:
  - main
  - name: beta
    prerelease: true
plugins:
  - - '@semantic-release/commit-analyzer'
    - preset: conventionalcommits
  - - '@semantic-release/release-notes-generator'
    - preset: conventionalcommits
  - - '@semantic-release/changelog'
    - preset: conventionalcommits
  - '@semantic-release/npm'
  - - '@semantic-release/git'
    - assets:
        - CHANGELOG.md
        - package.json
        - package-lock.json
  - - '@semantic-release/github'
    - assets:
        - CHANGELOG.md
        - package.json

specifically, here's a run. this exits 0 / succeeds (same with a dry-run), but never seems to
