fix: auto-create check run on changeset PR to satisfy branch protection (#211)

Pushes made by GITHUB_TOKEN don't trigger workflows (GitHub limitation),
so the changeset PR never gets the required 'test' status check.
This adds a step that creates a successful check run via the API
after the changesets action pushes to the PR branch.
