Subject: [PATCH] chore(release): pre-bump version artifacts to 1.6.0 (PR #581
 recovery)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

PR #581 merged without a semver label, so its Auto Semver Tag run failed
(as designed). The recovery rerun — after labeling semver:minor — got as
far as pushing the bump commit, but the rerun replays the original event
payload: its checkout pinned main at PR #581's merge, and main has since
advanced (PR #582), so the push was rejected non-fast-forward. Reruns
always replay the same stale SHA, so that path cannot succeed anymore.

This PR takes auto-tag.yml's documented escape hatch instead: pre-bump
every version artifact to 1.6.0 in the PR itself. On merge, the
auto-tag run finds the artifacts already at the new version, skips the
release-bot push, and proceeds straight to tag + GitHub Release +
publish dispatch.

Rendered via the same scripts auto-tag runs (render_site.py,
render_site_markdown.py, render_server_card.py). Also picks up
server.json, which render_server_card.py rewrites but auto-tag's
git-add list does not stage.
