ci: simplify for attestation-only releases (no draft needed)

Since actions/attest@v4 stores attestations via GitHub's attestation API
(not as release assets), repos that only use attestation don't need draft
releases. Release-please can publish the release directly.

Changes:
- Remove draft:true from release-please-config.json
- Remove create-tag job/steps (force-tag-creation handles this)
- Remove publish-release job (release is published directly)
- Remove publish_release input from manual workflows
