Bumps softprops/action-gh-release from 2.5.0 to 2.6.1.

Release notes

Sourced from softprops/action-gh-release's releases.

v2.6.1

2.6.1 is a patch release focused on restoring linked discussion thread creation when discussion_category_name is set. It fixes [#764](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/764), where the draft-first publish flow stopped carrying the discussion category through the final publish step.

If you still hit an issue after upgrading, please open a report with the bug template and include a minimal repro or sanitized workflow snippet where possible.

What's Changed

Bug fixes 🐛

v2.6.0

2.6.0 is a minor release centered on previous_tag support for generate_release_notes, which lets workflows pin GitHub's comparison base explicitly instead of relying on the default range. It also includes the recent concurrent asset upload recovery fix, a working_directory docs sync, a checked-bundle freshness guard for maintainers, and clearer immutable-prerelease guidance where GitHub platform behavior imposes constraints on how prerelease asset uploads can be published.

If you still hit an issue after upgrading, please open a report with the bug template and include a minimal repro or sanitized workflow snippet where possible.

v2.5.3

2.5.3 is a patch release focused on the remaining path-handling and release-selection bugs uncovered after 2.5.2. It fixes [#639](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/639), [#571](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/571), [#280](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/280), [#614](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/614), [#311](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/311), [#403](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/403), and [#368](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/368). It also adds documentation clarifications for [#541](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/541), [#645](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/645), [#542](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/542), [#393](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/393), and [#411](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/411), where the current behavior is either usage-sensitive or constrained by GitHub platform limits rather than an action-side runtime bug.

Superseded by dependency refresh on main (manual bump aligning with Dependabot targets).

OK, I won't notify you again about this release, but will get in touch when a new version is available. If you'd rather skip all updates until the next major or minor version, let me know by commenting @dependabot ignore this major version or @dependabot ignore this minor version. You can also ignore all major, minor, or patch releases for a dependency by adding an ignore condition with the desired update_types to your config file.

If you change your mind, just re-open this PR and I'll resolve any conflicts on it.
