"Publish snap" action
Metadata
Current evaluation
Feature request for a GitHub Action equivalent to snapcraft upload --release, to complement the existing snapcraft/pack action. Triaged by maintainer, no implementation found in the repo. Last activity 215 days ago adding a retry requirement.
Suggested action: keep open
Reason: The issue is labeled Status: Triaged, authored by a maintainer (lengau), and the repo remains actively maintained with recent commits (e.g., node-based rewrite of snapcraft/pack #100, modular setup actions #80). No publish/upload action exists in the codebase or README, and no related PRs were found. The 215-day activity gap is notable but the feature remains relevant and unimplemented.

Issue body
Create an action that's roughly equivalent to the `snapcraft upload --release` command. It should work well with the `snapcraft/pack` action.
