CI enhancement to publish testcraft snap from PRs/main to dedicated latest/edge branches with install-command PR comments. Triaged by maintainer, blocked on canonical/craft-actions#48 (still open), no activity in 256 days.

Suggested action: keep open

Reason: The issue is triaged (Status: Triaged label), authored by maintainer lengau, and explicitly blocked on canonical/craft-actions#48 which is still open. No implementation exists in the repo (no matching workflow or commits referencing craft-application-<pr#> branches). It remains a valid enhancement that simply cannot proceed until the dependency is resolved.

Issue body

### What needs to get done Once we have completed https://github.com/canonical/craft-actions/issues/48 Use that action to publish the testcraft snap to the `latest/edge/craft-application-<pr#>` branch. Running on main should publish to the `latest/edge/craft-application-main` branch. NOTHING should release directly to any public channels. When running from a PR, this workflow should also make a comment notifying that the snap has been released. This should include both `snap install` and `snapcraft refresh --amend` commands for easy copy/paste. ### Why it needs to get done Make it far easier for reviewers to test changes in a real-world situation.
