Subject: [PATCH] Remove docs about automatic releases, remove release.yml
 (#1637)

Follow-up from #1633.

Other than the alpha-release job not working, internally the team maintaining
misk and friends are revisiting the version update
strategy for these repos, and think that using only manually cut
releases is easier to reason about for downstream services.

-# Releasing `@Misk` Packages on NPM
-
-Alpha releases happen automatically after each merge to `master` branch. Check the commit history for commits by `Misk-Web Alpha Release Bot` for examples.
-
-Alphas releases are denoted by the trailing additional version added to the regular SemVer version of format `major.minor.patch-alpha`. For example, `0.1.25-5` is the `-5` alpha build of upcoming `0.1.25` stable release.
-
-As a result of Alpha releases happening automatically, any merged changes or bumped dependencies end up in usable, published NPM packages shortly after the PR being merged. To update tabs to latest alpha release, follow the linked steps to use [\$ miskweb pin](https://cashapp.github.io/misk-web/docs/guides/building-a-tab/08-upgrading-misk-web-version).
