Subject: [PATCH] fix(ci): follow Gitea http->https redirect when publishing
 releases

server_url resolves to http and Gitea answers the create-release POST with a
308 redirect; curl without -L returned an empty body and the grep-based id
extraction failed under set -e/pipefail, failing v0.1.3 publish. Add -L,
reuse an existing release on retry, and parse with python3.
