Actually poking around the `github` context it looks like for
workflow-dispatch-triggered-events `base_ref` is blank but `ref_name`
has the branch name we're interested in.
* Change the bump-version workflow's schedule
Either I don't understand cron or GitHub doesn't understand cron. It's
not clear which. I think that
https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/pull/3511 may have fallen
within our schedule but it was supposed to be on a weekday. Otherwise
https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/pull/3499 was certainly
spurious. This commit moves to a simpler "just do it on the same day
each month" and we can manually figure out weekdays and such. Hopefully
this should reduce the number of spurious PRs we're getting to bump
versions.
This also removes the script to force a version bump since I found a
button on the GitHub UI to do the same thing. Additionally I've updated
the patch-release documentation to use this button. Note that this
button takes inputs as well which means we can further automate patch
releases to look even more like normal release process, differing only
in one part of the argument used to trigger the workflow.
* Fix a typo
* Automate more of Wasmtime's release process
This change revamps the release process for Wasmtime and intends to make
it nearly 100% automated for major release and hopefully still pretty
simple for patch releases. New workflows are introduced as part of
this commit:
* Once a month a PR is created with major version bumps
* Specifically hinted commit messages to the `main` branch will get
tagged and pushed to the main repository.
* On tags we'll now not only build releases after running CI but
additionally crates will be published to crates.io.
In conjunction with other changes this means that the release process
for a new major version of Wasmtime is simply merging a PR. Patch
releases will involve running some steps locally but most of the
nitty-gritty should be simply merging the PR that's generated.
* Use an anchor in a regex
