add / resolve issues with release process documentation

[ctb]

(this extracts still-relevant issues from the meandering discussion in #955)

the sourmash releases page has weird releases show up, e.g. https://github.com/dib-lab/sourmash/releases/tag/r0.9.0. I think they're from the release candidates? Or maybe the rust builds? What should we do about them, if anything?

I note on https://pypi.org/project/sourmash/3.2.3/ that the first line of the README shows up, <meta charset="utf-8"/>. Should we fix/remove?

They are the core rust versions, which are versioned differently than sourmash. These tags are the versions published in https://crates.io/crates/sourmash.

I'll try to find if there is a way to hide them in releases...

Yes, remove. This is something for crates.io display, but now the README for it comes from src/core/README.md, so no good reason to mess the PyPI display.

between them, #1124 and #1125 will close this issue.
