fix(ci): consolidate all auto-tag changelog fixes

Three issues addressed together:

1. Race condition (was PR #56): changelog job now CREATES the Gitea
   release rather than assuming build jobs have already created it.
   Build jobs continue to use create-or-skip + upload unchanged.

2. Detached HEAD push: 'git push origin master' fails when HEAD is
   detached (no local branch named master). Changed to 'HEAD:master'.

3. git-cliff tag guard: verify tag is present locally before running
   git-cliff, to fail fast with a clear message rather than silently
   generating a wrong changelog.

4. git commit idiom: replaced 'git commit || echo' (swallows all
   non-zero exit codes including real failures) with an explicit
   'git diff --staged --quiet' guard so set -euo pipefail is not
   undermined.
