Subject: [PATCH] fix(release) skip npm auth pre-check for OIDC trusted
 publishing

release-it runs `npm whoami` before publishing, which fails under
OIDC because the auth token is only available during `npm publish
--provenance`. Skip the pre-flight check so the OIDC token exchange
happens at publish time as designed.
