Summary
release_prepare→changelog_update→pypi_publish) fromon_master.yamlinto a newmanual_release_beta.yamlreusable workflow.workflow_dispatch(manual trigger from the GitHub UI) andworkflow_call(soon_mastercan keep auto-publishing betas after master pushes).on_master.yamlnow has a singlebeta_releasejob that calls the new workflow, preserving the existing skip condition (!ci/!docs/!test+apify/org gate) andcode_checks+testsdependencies.Why
We previously had no way to cut a beta without pushing a release-triggering commit to master. With this change, a beta can be released on demand from the Actions tab, while the existing automatic flow on master is preserved.
