Changes

fixes #6091

(this can be merged before tektoncd/plumbing#1333, but it'd definitely be beter for that Plumbing PR to merge first)

This switches how we resolve the publish-release Task in release-pipeline from an anonymous git clone to using the GitHub API. The full clone approach is almost always timing out, in part thanks to #6025, but even if it finished successfully every time, it'd still be adding at least a minute of extra time to the pipeline execution for no particularly good reason. Using the GitHub API-based resolution instead means no clone is needed, with the resolver just making a couple very specific API calls to get the contents of the specified file. So yeah, much faster!
