Github action to create release notes

When a new tag is pushed (and mirrored to github), this github action
generates release notes, and creates a draft release which can be
published via the github UI after any manual verification or edits.

An example draft release, generated using act [0] is available for review
for those with sufficient access:

https://github.com/airshipit/airshipctl/releases

This could be extended in the future to accomplish other release tasks:

- add version-tagged image to quay
- integrate with goreleaser[1] (publish go binaries)
- publish documentation
