These are (polished versions of) some notes I wrote down while preparing
the 2.93.0 release with Jade.

After the release is created, we do some post-release validation for the
Lix packaging in Nixpkgs. This change documents those checks.
NB Most of these should probably be *pre*-release validation checks!
Closes#627.

The fruits of a night spent figuring out the Lix release process.
Other notes:
* The release process maybe uses a horrible `builders` setting or
something to build all the architectures on the CI builders?
* Requires `nix-eval-jobs` (!!!)

This is not a proper fix for the confusion that can happen about how the
tags are supposed to be used.
For a proper fix, we need to do
https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/439 and implement
worktrees such that the user never sees the git state anymore.

This was causing a few bits of suffering downstream, in particular, in
the NixOS module, which, after this change, can have the
`officialRelease` stuff in *it* completely deleted since we now have
correct defaulting in package.nix for it.
It also eliminates some automated editing of Nix files, which is
certainly always welcome to eliminate.

This can release x86_64-linux binaries to staging, with ephemeral keys.
I think it's good enough to review at least at this point, so we don't
keep adding more stuff to it to make it harder to review.
