ci: ensure the auto-created release-please action runs CI

Prerequisites checklist

• I have read the contributing guidelines.

What is the purpose of this pull request?

This PR follows up on eslint/css#330.

In this PR, I've ensured the auto-created release-please action triggers CI.

Problem

Currently, the auto-created PR from the release-please action does not trigger CI, as shown below:

For example: eslint/rewrite#336

This can result in CI not running and may lead to issues like eslint/rewrite#308 if the check is missing.

Solution

I've used secrets.WORKFLOW_PUSH_BOT_TOKEN instead of the default secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN, following the same approach described in eslint/css#330.

Also, the permissions for contents and pull-requests is no longer necessary because secrets.WORKFLOW_PUSH_BOT_TOKEN already grants the required permissions, so I removed it.

FYI: the token input reference: https://github.com/googleapis/release-please-action?tab=readme-ov-file#action-inputs

Test

I've tested it in my forked repository (using rewrite repository), and it works as expected:

lumirlumir/fork-rewrite#9

• Before: CI wasn't running

• After: CI is running

Pull request overview

This PR updates the release-please GitHub Actions workflow to ensure that auto-created PRs trigger CI checks. The change addresses an issue where release PRs were not running CI workflows, which could lead to undetected problems.

Key Changes:

• Configured release-please action to use WORKFLOW_PUSH_BOT_TOKEN instead of the default GITHUB_TOKEN
• Removed redundant contents: write and pull-requests: write permissions now covered by the bot token
• Added formatting improvements with blank lines for better readability
