Adds new flags to `release.go` to provide more control over the release lifecycle and allow resuming from failures: - `-start-step`: Bypasses completed steps and starts from the specified ID. - `-list-steps`: Prints a numbered list of all available steps for each branch. - `-version`: Allows manually providing the release version (e.g., "8.0.1") to ensure verification steps work when the detection step is skipped. Refactors the release workflow logic to support conditional step execution and implements a version discovery fallback that attempts to extract the release version from recently merged PRs if not explicitly provided.
Updates the automated PR creation for spring-io/start.spring.io to automatically append a "Signed-off-by: Name <email>" line to the PR body. This satisfies the Developer Certificate of Origin (DCO) requirement for upstream Spring projects. The script now dynamically fetches the user's full name using the GitHub CLI and their email address from the local git config (falling back to the -email flag if unavailable).

This PR updates the automated Spring Initializr PR creation step in the release script (
util/release.go) to automatically append a Developer Certificate of Origin (DCO) sign-off to the pull request body.Since
spring-io/start.spring.iois an upstream Spring project, it requires a DCO sign-off for all contributions. This enhancement ensures that the PRs generated by our release script are compliant and don't get blocked by upstream bots.
