.github/workflows: use softprops/action-gh-release in release workflow

actions/create-release is no longer maintained. Also, uploading release
artifacts using skx/github-action-publish-binaries is a bit of a lottery
and sometimes repeatedly fails.

Switch to softprops/action-gh-release instead, which combines creating a
release with uploading release artifacts and allows to trigger the
release notes auto-generation.

Also, the action seems maintained and is suggested as a replacement for
actions/create-release, see
https://github.com/actions/upload-release-asset#github-action---releases-api
