fix(release): fall back to direct merge when auto-merge is rejected (#71)

Browse Source 
On repos without required status checks in branch protection, GitHub
rejects enablePullRequestAutoMerge with 'clean status' error. Add a
fallback to direct squash merge so releases complete without manual
intervention.
