Update Hub content for renaming of 'Mkdocs Publisher' to 'Github Publisher'

See https://github.com/obsidianmd/obsidian-releases/pull/969/files

I believe that the update process will create a new plugin note, and the old one will be orphaned, so should probably be deleted by hand, once https://github.com/obsidianmd/obsidian-releases/pull/969 has been approved, and then the Hub has been updated.

I've looked into this... but since the plugin didn't change its ID, no new note was created and the old one still works as expected. Memo to myself that I should try to delete the old one, run the update_hub script locally and see if that changes the content.

Hi @lguenth,

There is a missing step in all this publishing, which is to run the update script with something like --overwrite to update existing files.

At the moment, running it (manually) generates a load of edits that need to be manually reviewed and lots reverted. I used to run it every couple of weeks but haven't done so for months.

From the last time that @argenos and I met to discuss work on the hub, I have some actions to enable the automation of this, but then I took over Tasks, and unfortunately haven't worked on the Hub code at all.

As an interim sticking plaster - and it's asking a lot - if you would be interested in running that update process periodically, we could screen-share and work through it, and document it...
