ci: publish releases to Gitea instead of GitHub

The workflow was written for github.com: actions/upload-artifact failed on
the Gitea runner, softprops/action-gh-release only talks to the GitHub API,
and gen-manifest.js hardcoded github.com URLs.

- drop the artifact upload (release assets are the deliverable)
- upload release assets with tools/release-gitea.js, a dependency-free
  Gitea API client; re-running a tag replaces the attachments
- gen-manifest.js takes --server/PUBLIC_SERVER_URL and knows that Gitea
  spells the latest-asset URL /releases/download/latest/<file>
- PUBLIC_SERVER_URL is set explicitly because the runner only sees the
  instance's internal LAN address
