ci: pass PAT to action-gh-release so release events propagate (#44)
GitHub Actions deliberately does not propagate workflow events triggered by the default GITHUB_TOKEN — a safety feature against infinite loops. softprops/action-gh-release falls back to GITHUB_TOKEN when no `token` is supplied, so the resulting `release: published` event was silently swallowed and never reached homebrew-bump.yml. Discovered shipping v0.10.1: tag pushed cleanly, crates.io published cleanly, GitHub release page created cleanly, but the brew tap never auto-bumped. Had to trigger homebrew-bump.yml manually via workflow_dispatch. Fix: pass HOMEBREW_TAP_GITHUB_TOKEN explicitly. This is already a PAT (used by homebrew-bump.yml to push cross-repo to razvandimescu/ homebrew-tap), so reusing it keeps the secret surface flat. PAT-authored release events are the documented escape hatch from the GITHUB_TOKEN no-propagation rule. Applies to v0.10.2+. v0.10.1 was bumped manually.
