deprecated actions

[freddydk]

The following GitHub actions have been deprecated.
actions/create-release
actions/upload-release-asset

Need to refactor Create Release pipeline to not use these actions

[freddydk]

Implementation

The usage of these actions will be modified into using actions/github-script and then a few javascript code lines utilizing the REST API, like:

      - name: Create release
        uses: actions/github-script@v6
        id: createrelease
        env:
          bodyMD: ${{ steps.createreleasenotes.outputs.releaseNotes }}
        with:
          github-token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
          script: |
            var bodyMD = process.env.bodyMD
            const createReleaseResponse = await github.rest.repos.createRelease({
              owner: context.repo.owner,
              repo: context.repo.repo,
              tag_name: '${{ github.event.inputs.tag }}',
              name: '${{ github.event.inputs.name }}',
              body: bodyMD.replaceAll('\\n','\n'),
              draft: ${{ github.event.inputs.draft=='Y' }},
              prerelease: ${{ github.event.inputs.prerelease=='Y' }},
              target_commitish: '${{ steps.analyzeartifacts.outputs.commitish }}'
            });
            const {
              data: { id: releaseId, html_url: htmlUrl, upload_url: uploadUrl }
            } = createReleaseResponse;
            core.setOutput('releaseId', releaseId);

and

      - name: Upload release artifacts
        uses: actions/github-script@v6
        env:
          releaseId: ${{ needs.createrelease.outputs.releaseId }}
        with:
          github-token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
          script: |
            const releaseId = process.env.releaseId
            const assetPath = '${{ matrix.name }}.zip'
            const assetName = '${{ matrix.name }}.zip'
            const fs = require('fs');
            const uploadAssetResponse = await github.rest.repos.uploadReleaseAsset({
              owner: context.repo.owner,
              repo: context.repo.repo,
              release_id: releaseId,
              name: assetName,
              data: fs.readFileSync(assetPath)
            });
