ci: remove release-drafter workflow
Metadata
Current evaluation
Merged. The release-drafter workflow was removed as the publish workflow already overwrites its output, rendering it redundant. Approved and integrated after CI validation.
Suggested action: —
No scores available.
Issue body
Our publish workflow overwrites what gets added by this workflow anyway, so it's not really doing anything for us.
