Enable nightly releases

[rijkvanzanten]

Ideally it'll auto-publish based based on the changesets with a version suffix {version}-nightly.{date}, for example v12.6.1-nightly.20240306.

I think we should only publish them as a Tag on GitHub, not a release. That way we don't flood people who are subscribed to the repo.

We should discuss whether we want these to go to both DockerHub and NPM, or just NPM 🤔

Do people get notified by pre-releases? I think we have to present a changelog somewhere, otherwise people won't know what has changed since the previous release and what's there to be played with. I would have thought of GitHub releases for this.

Personally, I'd like to deploy to both, whereas DockerHub seems almost more important to me, so that people can try out a nightly release easily without having to setup Node.js, etc.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think yes.

Are you thinking this would be a changelog since the last 24h release, or a changelog since the last public version?
