👷 [ci] Simplify git-cliff installation in publish workflow

 - Replace runtime GitHub API release lookup with a pinned download URL (v2.10.1) to avoid API auth/rate issues and speed up CI
 - Remove custom request headers and UseBasicParsing; use a straightforward Invoke-WebRequest to fetch the ZIP
 - Tweak comment and behavior: add git-cliff to PATH for the session and still export PATH to GITHUB_ENV (no claim about persisting)
 - Preserve extraction and validation steps (fail if git-cliff.exe is missing)
 - Note: pins git-cliff version; update URL when upgrading the tool
