This publishes a release automatically whenever a version tag is pushed, with the version's section of CHANGES.md as the notes, and adds Dependabot to keep the action pins current. The unreleased section is headed by the upcoming version rather than a fixed word, so prereleases find it by the (unreleased) marker. It only affects tags pushed from now on.

Publishes a release automatically whenever a version tag is pushed,
with the version's section of CHANGES.md as the body. Tags here are
bare (0.8.0, not v0.8.0), so the trigger matches anything starting
with a digit. Prereleases fall back to the unreleased section, which
is headed by the upcoming version ("## 0.8.1 (unreleased)") and so is
looked up by its marker. GitHub's generated notes cover the case where
neither has anything.
Monthly bumps for the action versions the workflows pin.
