ci(release): wait for the mirrored tag, never mint it

The Codeberg publish has never once succeeded — 0.2.1, 0.2.2, 0.3.0, 0.3.1
and 0.3.2 all failed, and 0.3.0 was published by hand. Neither previous fix
could have worked, because the cause isn't in this file: ref writes to
jlmakiola/agendula on Codeberg fail. A tag push returns "cannot lock
references" and POST /tags returns an empty-bodied 500, while the identical
calls succeed on jlmakiola/calendula with the same token. Creating a release
mints a tag, so it inherited the same failure.

Attaching a release to a tag that is ALREADY there needs no ref write and
returns 201. So split the responsibility the way it should have been: the
push mirror owns delivering the tag, this step only attaches to it. Poll for
the tag, then POST with no target_commitish so the API attaches rather than
resolves a commit and mints one. If the tag never lands, fail with a pointer
at the mirror instead of trying to create it.

Drop continue-on-error. It reported green across five releases that never
published, which is how 0.3.1's crash fix reached F-Droid while the Codeberg
and Obtainium users who hit the crash got nothing.

Tested against the live API before committing (unlike its predecessors):
tag-present attaches 201, tag-absent exits 1 with the diagnostic. Note this
does not by itself restore publishing — the mirror cannot write the v0.3.2
tag either, so Codeberg must repair the repo's ref store first.
