chore: drop NPM_RELEASE_READY gate from tag publish

[patrickleet]

Summary

Removes the one-time NPM_RELEASE_READY Actions variable gate from on-v-tag-publish.yaml. npm bootstrap and trusted publishing are done; leaving a permanent true flag adds no safety.

Still kept

• Tag form validation (vX.Y.Z)
• Public registry existence check for @hops-ops/distributed (any version, not only 0.0.0)

Also

Deletes the now-unused repository variable after merge (or immediately).

Test plan

• Workflow/docs only
• Confirm next tag path no longer references vars.NPM_RELEASE_READY
