feat(release): allow rebuilding an existing tag via workflow_dispatch (#32)

Adds a `tag` input so a release can be re-run without rewriting its tag.
Tag-triggered runs use the workflow file at the tagged commit, so fixing the
workflow and re-pushing the same tag was previously the only way to rebuild —
which rewrites a published release ref and misrepresents what the tag points
at.

RELEASE_TAG resolves to the input on workflow_dispatch and to the ref
otherwise, and drives both the checkout ref and tauri-action's tagName.
