ci(release): publish artifact attestations for release assets (#2431)

Add a step that signs main.js, manifest.json, and styles.css with the
workflow's OIDC identity and publishes the attestation to Sigstore's
public transparency log via actions/attest-build-provenance@v2.

Why: Obsidian's plugin review tooling flags release assets without an
attestation as a soft warning. Attestations cryptographically prove the
asset was built by this workflow on this commit, defending against an
attacker who gains release-asset-replace permissions and silently swaps
in a compromised main.js. Verification post-release:

  gh attestation verify main.js --owner logancyang --repo logancyang/obsidian-copilot

Placement: the new step runs AFTER the prerelease manifest swap and
BEFORE gh release create. That way the attested manifest.json is
exactly the bytes that get uploaded — for stable releases that's
the committed manifest.json; for prereleases it's the in-runner
copy of manifest-beta.json.

Permissions: adds attestations: write and id-token: write to the job.
The id-token: write permission is what allows the workflow to request
an OIDC token from GitHub; the attest action uses that token as proof
of identity when signing. No secrets to manage.

Free for public repos.
