feat: set `remote.type` dynamically from env

[huxuan]

Feature Request

Description

I have a template project hosted both on GitHub and GitLab mostly for demostration, and I want to leverage both GitHub Actions and GitLab CI/CD, so I need to set the remote.type dynamically. But it seems that a validation error will happen when I try to set an env for it.

Expected behavior

Possibility to set remote.type with env.

Actual behavior

A validation error is raised.

@huxuan, unfortunately it's not a bug, but it is not configured to support an env variable input at this time.

Changing this to a feature request and adding it to the backlog. Thanks for the desired use case. This may ultimately help out #149.

Sorry I tried to search but did not find that issue, will close this one as already tracked there. Thanks for the prompt response!

That's not quite what I meant, I just realized that the resolution of this issue would partially lead to a resolution of the other one. The other one has been open for years without really any solution that made sense, is all.

It has been 60 days since the last update on this confirmed issue. @python-semantic-release/team can you provide an update on the status of this issue?

Still in the backlog, I forgot about this one, it should be easy to knock out quickly.
