It was brought to my attention that we should be more restrictive in which tasks we ovver a GitHub token to. Sorry!

With thanks to sitiom for the version parsing and the magic GitHub action syntax incantation for determining what is a prerelease.

I would be interested to know what is the security issue with the github token?

It's supposed to be a token for a bot account that has winget pkg forked right?

even if a malicious actor obtained the token somehow, he can't do anything with it since the bot account doesn't have permission to do anything?

[The winget-releaser action] automatically generates manifests for the
[Winget Community Repository] and submits them.

I suggest adding Dependabot to keep the action up to date. There were
many cases where the action was failing due to an outdated version.

Closes #14795
