The
publish-to-testpypi.yamlworkflow isn't working properly because it's trying to upload a version number that already exists. So this PR adds code to automatically generate a new alpha-release version number. It usespip index versionsto get the latest version number, then useshatch version ato bump the number.I've also updated publish-to-pypi.yaml so that it will update both PyPI and TestPyPI when we release a new official version.
