Throttle release PR comment posting to avoid secondary rate limits

[Copilot]

Release automation is posting comments to merged PRs too quickly and intermittently hitting GitHub secondary write-rate limits (403 on issues.createComment). This change adds pacing between comment writes so the release comment pass can complete more reliably on large releases.

• What changed

  • Added an explicit inter-comment delay in comment_release_prs within the release workflow script.
  • Delay is applied only when a new release comment is about to be created (not for already-marked PRs), preserving skip behavior and existing retry semantics.
  • Recompiled workflow output so release.lock.yml matches release.md.

• Behavioral impact

  • Comment throughput is intentionally reduced to lower burst pressure on GitHub’s content-creation limits.
  • Existing duplicate-detection marker logic and retry/backoff flow remain intact.

const sleep = (ms) => new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(resolve, ms));
const commentDelayMs = 1000;

if (commentedCount > 0) {
  await sleep(commentDelayMs);
}

await withRetry(
  () => github.rest.issues.createComment({ owner, repo, issue_number: pr.number, body: commentBody }),
  `Creating release comment for #${pr.number}`
);
