Run e2e render after release instead of every night

[nmbrthirteen]

What this does

Agrees with running the heavy cross-OS render check when something actually ships, not every morning on an unchanged main.

• Drops the daily cron
• Triggers on release: published (after a v* release is cut)
• Keeps workflow_dispatch for manual runs
• Renames the workflow to post-release-render (same file)

Merge after #118 so the first post-release run isn’t red on the DM Sans timeout.

How I tested it

• Workflow YAML review against release.yml (softprops/action-gh-release publishes a GitHub release, which fires release: published)

Checklist

• npx tsc --noEmit and npm test pass (plus pytest tests/ if you touched the backend)
• Docs updated if commands or behavior changed
• No secrets, personal config, or generated output committed

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Chores
  • Updated automated rendering checks to run after a release is published.
  • Retained the option to trigger rendering checks manually.
  • Removed the nightly scheduled run.

Warning

Review limit reached

@nmbrthirteen, you've reached your PR review limit, so we couldn't start this review.

Next review available in: 51 minutes

Enable usage-based reviews in Billing to review now. Otherwise, wait until the next included review is available.
You're only billed for reviews past your plan's rate limits ($0.25/file).

How can I continue?

After more reviews become available, a review can be triggered using the @coderabbitai review command as a PR comment. Alternatively, push new commits to this PR.

To avoid repeated limits, reduce automatic review volume by pausing incremental auto-reviews earlier, using label-based review opt-in, excluding WIP or generated PR titles, or requesting reviews manually when the PR is ready. If your team needs uninterrupted high-volume reviews, an organization admin can enable usage-based reviews.

How do review limits work?

CodeRabbit enforces per-developer PR review limits for each organization. Most developers receive the normal plan review availability.

For paid Pro and Pro+ PR reviews, CodeRabbit uses adaptive limits for sustained high-volume activity. When a developer's recent PR review activity reaches the 95th percentile or higher among CodeRabbit users, additional reviews become available more gradually as earlier reviews age out of the rolling window.

Please refer docs for additional details.
