When transitioning from prerelease to stable, several SemVer ranges for packages referenced in the package.json files need to be adjusted so that the unsupported prerelease versions are not mentioned in the final stable release.

Thanks for adding this, it's good to document caveats like this for releases.

I'm a bit concerned caretakers won't read this at the time that it's relevant. Ideally, this is something that release tooling would do automatically. Can we surface this as a bug to dev infra as well (or maybe address it in the fixit) so we don't need to remember to do this during major releases?

Being able to extend the Bazel stamping configuration during release is on the backlog for dev-infra which should be able to be used to support use case such as this.
Ideally, no manual steps should be needed for the release.
