Update release.yml

[FrankTheBoxMonster]

Changing '7' to '8' apparently didn't do anything, docs only ever mention using '8.0.x' so going to try that instead

Walkthrough

This pull request modifies the dotnet-version specification in .github/workflows/release.yml, changing from '8' to 8.0.x in the Setup .NET action steps. This affects two jobs in the release workflow (platform-binary and nupkg), refining the .NET 8.x SDK matching behavior. No changes are made to build, install, or release step logic.

❌ Failed checks (1 inconclusive)

Check name	Status	Explanation	Resolution
Title check	❓ Inconclusive	The title 'Update release.yml' is vague and generic, failing to convey what change was made or why—it simply names the file being modified.

Check name	Status	Explanation
Description check	✅ Passed	The description explains the motivation and specific change: updating the dotnet-version from '7' to '8' wasn't working, so switching to '8.0.x' per documentation recommendations.

57-61: Aligns with setup-dotnet docs; should track latest 8.0 patch

Switching to dotnet-version: 8.0.x in both jobs brings the workflow in line with the documented pattern and will keep picking the latest 8.0 SDK, which is generally what you want. Given the project still targets net7.0, building with an 8.0 SDK is normally supported and should be safe.

Please double-check the current actions/setup-dotnet@v4 docs and confirm via a test/tagged run that the workflow now installs the expected SDK version (e.g., by echoing dotnet --info in a temporary step).

Also applies to: 100-104

nvm this isn't the actual problem, figured out what is though so resubmitting with that instead (there's a separate command line being ran that explicitly overrides to using .net 7 and I didn't catch it when updating previously)
