Statically generating opentofu releases page: Fixes opentofu/opentofu#1131

[sanskruti-shahu]

Objective

The objective of this PR is to introduce a statically generated releases page for the opentofu.

Changes

• Created a new folder named releases_page, containing main.go file and README.md.
• main.go file is responsible for fetching release information from the GitHub API and generating all required HTML pages when executed.
• Also, added README.md file to provide clarity on the functionality of the main.go file.

Continuation of #16

It seems that this code is incomplete.

[sanskruti-shahu]

Hey @janosdebugs , For these changes to be reflected correctly you need to change/add the build command as
go run releases_page/main.go wherever this opentofu/get.opentofu.org is hosted on cloudflare. This ensures that the main.go file is executed during the build stage, generating all necessary HTML pages.

I did same thing with my forked of opentofu/get.opentofu.org, (on my personal cloudflare acount) I added build command as go run releases_page/main.go so I got the expected result.

I missed the file writing, my apologies.

[sanskruti-shahu]

Hey @janosdebugs , I have implemented the changes you requested. Could you please review them again?

[janosdebugs]

Hey @sanskruti-shahu please make sure that:

1. You handle ALL exit paths (i.e. close files before all return statements).
2. When you have written a file, always handle errors on Close. With some filesystems you only get an error on Close, not when writing the file.

Please request a re-review once you have completed this for all code branches.

Hey @janosdebugs , According to me I have implemented the mentioned changes, Please let me know if there's still anything missing. Thanks.

[sanskruti-shahu]

@janosdebugs , Gentle reminder.

[janosdebugs]

Looks good @sanskruti-shahu thank you! One tiny nit-pick and sorry for the delay.

Note for my fellow reviewer: this code now generates the content, but we will still need to add a GitHub Actions integration. I would recommend merging into a feature branch and work from there.
