Summary

This PR upgrades the SonarSource/gh-action_release GitHub Action from version 6 to version 7 in the release workflow. This is a routine version bump for the action that handles Maven Central releases and binary publishing.

The change is minimal and focused — only the version tag is updated from @v6 to @v7 in .github/workflows/release.yml. All workflow inputs and configuration remain unchanged.

What reviewers should know

What to review:

• Check the SonarSource/gh-action_release v7 release notes to confirm compatibility and understand any new features or fixes
• Verify the workflow configuration (publishToBinaries, mavenCentralSync) still works with v7
• No code changes in this repository — this is purely a dependency update

No gotchas: This is a straightforward action version bump with no complex dependencies or breaking changes evident from the diff.

LGTM! ✅

Clean, minimal change. The rest of the workflow inputs (publishToBinaries, mavenCentralSync, slackChannel, version, releaseId, dryRun) and permissions (id-token: write, contents: write) are untouched.

• Using a mutable semver tag (@v7) is consistent with every other SonarSource action in this repo — no codebase convention is violated.
• No stale @v6 references to gh-action_release remain elsewhere in .github/workflows/.
• The two release workflows (release.yml and automated-release.yml) use different upstream actions for genuinely different concerns — no logic duplication.
