Satyam SinghandGitHub 2364f33cc6 Fix release workflow: tag regex, artifact validation, and token usage (#187) ...

## 🔧 Summary
This PR improves the release.yml GitHub Actions workflow by addressing
several critical issues to ensure consistent and reliable behavior
during tag-based releases.

## ✅ Changes Included
### 1. Fixed tag trigger regex
- Escaped dots in the tag regex ([0-9]+\\.[0-9]+\\.[0-9]+) to ensure
only semantic version tags like 1.2.3 trigger the workflow.
#####  Explanation
- Old **Regex** is incorrect because . matches **any character**, so it
matched:

`1-2-3`, `1_2_3`, even `1a2b3`, which is invalid for versioning.

 - Fixed **Regex** is strict — matches only 1.2.3.

**Bad Match with Old Regex:**

**Proper Match with Fixed Regex:**

### 💬 Note: If you're planning to adopt alternate version tag formats in
the future — such as:

 - v1.0.2 (semantic with prefix)

- release-1.0.2 or rel-1.0.2

- 1.0.2-beta, 1.0.2-rc.1 (prereleases with suffixes)

 - x1.0.2x (custom wrapping formats)

**…feel free to reach out. I'm happy to help extend the workflow to
support those formats reliably and safely.**

### 2. Added strict release job guard
- Prevented **accidental release runs** on non-tag events using if:
startsWith(github.ref, 'refs/tags/').

### 3. Explicit artifact validation
- **Introduced a shell check** using ls and test to ensure .zip and .pkg
files exist before attempting release. This gives early, clear failure
instead of a **vague error** from `action-gh-release`.

### 4. Clarified GitHub token usage
- Switched from ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }} to ${{ github.token }} for
better readability and consistency with GitHub Actions best practices.
