This pull request refactors the core logic of the package to use the
`@semantic-release/core` engine directly, removes legacy and duplicated
code, and centralizes configuration. The changes simplify the codebase
by delegating most of the release logic to the upstream core package,
making the CLI wrapper thinner and easier to maintain. Several internal
utility files for branch and tag handling are also removed, as their
logic is now handled by `@semantic-release/core`.
### Migration to Core Engine
* The CLI now delegates release logic to `@semantic-release/core`, using
its `resolveConfig`, `getLogger`, and other helpers, instead of
maintaining a custom implementation. This reduces maintenance overhead
and ensures alignment with the core release logic.
* The documentation is updated to explain that `semantic-release` uses
`@semantic-release/core` as its engine, and provides guidance for
advanced use cases.
### Configuration and Defaults
* A new `SEMANTIC_RELEASE_DEFAULT_CONFIG` constant is introduced,
centralizing the default plugin stack for releases.
### Codebase Simplification
* Removes internal implementations for branch expansion, tag retrieval,
and normalization, as well as related validation and error handling
logic. These are now handled by the core engine.

that was introduced in CodeQL Action 4.37.0 / 3.37.0 to
`.github/codeql-config.yml` to align it with the suggested path that is
used elsewhere.

- The new address format for the `config-file` input that was introduced
in CodeQL Action 4.37.0 is now enabled by default. In addition to the
format described there, the `remote=` prefix can now be used to
explicitly indicate that the input refers to a remote file. All previous
input formats continue to be accepted as well.
[#​4023](https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4023)
- The CodeQL Action can now make use of [configured private
registries](https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/how-tos/secure-at-scale/configure-organization-security/manage-usage-and-access/giving-org-access-private-registries)
in Default Setup to retrieve CodeQL configuration files from remote
repositories that require authentication. This will allow customers to
store their CodeQL configuration in a single repository that can then be
referenced by Default Setup workflows in other repositories. We expect
to roll this and other, related changes out to everyone in July.
