CI: release every push to main with the next patch tag

Pushes to main get the next vX.Y.(Z+1) tag, are built with that version and
published as a Gitea release with the deb/rpm and commit subjects as notes.
Manual v* tags still release that exact version; already attached assets are
skipped so a tag-triggered rerun does not duplicate them.
