## Description
### Inputs:
`flavour`: `dev` or `main`
`test_mode`: `Boolean`. Aka Dry Run. If true, it won't affect public
indices or repositories
### Jobs
* Create GitHub Release
* Release PyPI Package
* Release Docker Image
[Test

/>
#### Create GitHub Release
Gets the `version` from `pyproject.toml`
Creates a tag and release based on the version. The version in
`pyproject.toml` **must** be already correct!
If the version not updated and tag already exists - the process will
take no effect and be failed.
Test release was deleted. Here is the screenshot:

/>
#### Release PyPI Package
Publishes the `dist` artifacts to pypi.org. If `test_mode` enabled - it
will publish it to test.pypi.org
([example](https://test.pypi.org/project/cognee/0.5.0.dev0/)). <<<
That's how I tested it.
#### Release Docker Image
**IMPORTANT!**
Builds the image and tags it with the version from `pyproject.toml`. For
example:
* `cognee/cognee:0.5.1.dev0`
* `cognee/cognee:0.5.1`
ONLY **main** flavor adds the `latest` tag!. If a user does `docker pull
cognee/cognee:latest` - the latest `main` release image will be pulled

## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **Chores**
* Added an automated release pipeline that creates versioned GitHub
releases, publishes Python packages to TestPyPI/PyPI, and builds/pushes
Docker images.
* Supports selectable dev/main flavors, includes flavor-specific image
tagging and labels, wires version/tag outputs for downstream steps, and
offers a test-mode dry run that skips external publishing.
