ci: add winget releaser workflow
This action automatically generates manifests for Winget Community Repository (microsoft/winget-pkgs) and submits them.
The Zen Browser package is being added to Winget (https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs/pull/168940, https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs/pull/168942), and this workflow will be used to update it.
Before merging this:
- Ensure the
${{ secrets.DEPLOY_KEY }}token has thepublic_repopermission:
- Fork https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs under @zen-browser. The action will use that fork for making a branch and creating a PR with the upstream winget-pkgs repository on every release.
- Install Pull on the winget-pkgs fork to ensure that it is constantly updated.
If you want to see an example of a PR created using this action, see microsoft/winget-pkgs/pulls (Pull request has been created with WinGet Releaser).
- Ensure the ${{ secrets.DEPLOY_KEY }} token has the public_repo permission
Could we get that done in the CI by using the PAT from GH actions and specifying it's permissions?
Sidenote, ZenBrowser.Zen also exists, I don't know if we can do something about there now being 2 IDs for the browser.

No, you can't. The PAT is used to make a commit and create a PR from an external repo.

Would using on: release avoid/fix the issue? So rather than it running with the main pipeline, it would run by itself whenever a new release is out. (Example https://github.com/microsoft/devhome/blob/94fde2349d7666575f28daf54451668f0acdbf4c/.github/workflows/winget-submission.yml#L3C1-L6C23).
The action would only run when you publish a release, so you'd still be able to sign your stuff
I just want to get everything signed and working before expanding to more windows sites... But this will be merged
