SUMMARY
Removes the logic to automatically send release-related emails. Now, the scripts will only generate the email content and the release manager have to manually send the emails. The objective is to avoid delivering incorrect emails to the dev list which has a big audience. The documentation was also updated with new steps related to the release.
