ci: remove fragile bump-pinata and update-docs jobs from release workflow (#933)

ilopezluna · web-flow · commit b4ba47bb1ae4 · 2026-05-22T10:05:21.000+02:00
Remove the bump-pinata and update-docs jobs from the release workflow.
These jobs create PRs in external repos (docker/pinata and docker/docs)
and are prone to failure due to private dependency authentication issues,
which blocks the github-release job from creating the GitHub Release.

The pinata bump and docs update PRs should be created manually or via
separate dedicated workflows that don't gate the release.
