ci: dispatch 12.0 branch release workflow from master release cron

[rlauuzo]

The 12.0 branch (Jellyfin 12 build of the plugin) never auto-releases because scheduled and repository_dispatch events only execute workflows from the default branch. This adds a dispatch-jellyfin-12 job to the release workflow that forwards every release check to the 12.0 branch via gh workflow run release.yml --ref 12.0, riding the existing 30-minute cron and dispatch triggers.

• The job dispatches unconditionally (no needs: on the master release job); the 12.0 branch's own workflow compares the recorded segment-editor master SHA and only releases on actual upstream changes, so forwarded no-op checks are cheap and the setup self-heals after failed runs
• Job-level permissions: actions: write scopes the token to the dispatch API only; workflow_dispatch is one of the two documented exceptions to the "GITHUB_TOKEN events don't trigger workflow runs" rule, so the dispatched run actually starts

Merge #13 (the 12.0-branch workflow rework) before this one: the old 12.0 workflow released unconditionally on every dispatch and pushed version bumps to the default branch.

Summary by Sourcery

CI:

• Add a dispatch job that runs the 12.0 branch release workflow on the existing master release cron using scoped actions permissions.

Reviewer's Guide

Adds a new job to the release GitHub Actions workflow so that every master-branch release check also triggers the 12.0 branch’s release workflow via a workflow_dispatch, using scoped permissions and the existing cron/dispatch schedule.

Forward master release checks to the 12.0 branch workflow via a dedicated dispatch job.	Introduce a new GitHub Actions job dispatch-jellyfin-12 that always runs alongside the main release job. Configure the job to run on ubuntu-latest with job-level permissions: actions: write so the GITHUB_TOKEN can call the actions dispatch API. Add a step that sets GH_TOKEN from secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN and invokes gh workflow run release.yml --repo "${{ github.repository }}" --ref 12.0 to trigger the 12.0 branch’s release workflow on each master release check.	.github/workflows/release.yml

Hey - I've left some high level feedback:

• Consider adding an if: condition on dispatch-jellyfin-12 so it only runs on the intended events (e.g. schedule and repository_dispatch) and doesn’t trigger on unrelated workflow invocations like push/PR runs.
