This PR introduces automated release management via Google's release-please-action@v4 workflow triggered on pushes to the main branch. Overall risk is Low, as the workflow follows modern GitHub Actions practices with explicit least-privilege permissions. Minor optimizations can be made to better align with Terraform module releases and GitHub Actions CI triggering behaviors.
