Pull request overview
This PR adds Release Please automation to manage version bumping, changelog generation, and GitHub releases. It configures the repository to use the simple release type since it's not a language-specific package, and organizes configuration files in .github/config/ following the repository's convention of keeping the root clean.
Changes:
- Add Release Please GitHub Actions workflow triggered on pushes to main
- Configure Release Please with
simplerelease type starting at version 0.1.0 - Reset CHANGELOG.md for Release Please to manage going forward
