Is the reviewers required? Will rem1776 be the only required reviewer? This could cause a potentially dangerous situation if you're on leave or away at the time of a release and a backup person is required.

i think it adds the other reviewers based on codeowners like it does for other prs, but i mean it's always the same changes so i'll just add you and rusty to that list

Can you get rid of reviewers entirely? Then it should just add the 3 of us, right?

Description
adds an action that will submit a pull request automatically after releases in order to add the -dev suffix to the autotools version and then assign me to review + merge it.
This might require additional permissions in the github settings (mentioned in the action page), but in my testing I was able to do it with the default settings. It always makes a new branch (with a timestamp) so shouldn't affect anything else in the repo.
One caveat is that the auto-generated PR won't run the CI workflows (at least not without additional work + messing with the tokens). Doesn't really matter though since the actual release tag will already be getting tested in the CI whenever this runs.
There is also a small bug fix here for the documentation action, apparently github thought it was a good idea to count the
releasetrigger as three different events.How Has This Been Tested?
Here's the generated PR from my fork:
rem1776#50
i just made releases on my fork till it worked so it should be the same end result
