## Description
Add release helper script (#64) This commit adds a release helper script, amongst other workflow improvements. See `README.md` for instructions, and `_tools/release.sh` for the script itself. This script: 1. sanity-checks the various version tags; 2. triggers a Plugin build; 3. flags the new version as pre-release; 4. tags the version in Git; 5. creates a local working copy of the SVN repo; 6. copies the new release to the local `trunk/` (whilst keeping the ‘Stable Tag’ field in `readme.txt` pointing to the previous stable version); 7. copies the commit message from the changelog in `readme.txt`; and 8. (if a flag is set) commits the changes to the remote `trunk/`. Pushing out a new release must still be done manually, once `trunk/` is tested and working. To do so, check out a local copy of `trunk/` and: 1. update the ‘Stable Tag’ field in `trunk/readme.txt` to the new version; 2. update the ‘Version’ field in the comment header of `trunk/footnotes.php` to the new version; 3. remove the ‘p’ from the end of the ‘version’ tag in the `getInfo()` function at the bottom of `js/wsiwyg-editor.js`; 4. copy a new tag for the release from `trunk/` (`svn cp trunk tags/<version number>`); and 5. commit your changes (`svn ci -m "Release version <version number>"`). The WP Plugin Directory will automatically parse the ‘Stable Tag’ field in `trunk/readme.txt`, and inform users that a new version is available. At various stages user input is required to validate information. This is not ready for automation with GitHub Actions, but is a useful step on the way — see [this piece](https://blog.danslimmon.com/2019/07/15/do-nothing-scripting-the-key-to-gradual-automation/) for more info. Unless a `-c` flag is passed (e.g., by running `composer run release:commit`) no changes will take place on the remote SVN repo. If you want to test this out on a branch other than `main`, uncomment lines 31 & 52 of the script. Version checking enforces the versioning rules stated [here](https://github.com/markcheret/footnotes/wiki/Versioning). **NB: I have not tested the `-c` mode yet, as I wanted people will more familiarity with the SVN to have a look at it before I risked making any changes and blowing everything up.** Co-authored-by: pewgeuges <73141620+pewgeuges@users.noreply.github.com>

## Building
1. Run `_tools/build-stylesheets.sh -c` to concatenate stylesheets
1. Manually minify the output files in `css/tmp/`, saving them as `.min.css` files
- The intention is to replace this with automated minification, meaning that
all of these steps can be rolled into a single `build` command.
1. Run `_tools/build-stylesheets.sh -d` to deploy the minified files to `dist/`
- **this will delete any existing `dist/` folder**
1. Run `composer run build` to move over the remaining files to `dist/`
- Currently, the files to include in a distribution are hard-coded in `_tools/build.sh`
- The intention is to replace this with a proper parsing of the `.distignore` file
