Pull request overview
This PR updates the Radius release process documentation to clarify the cherry-pick workflow used across all release types (RC, final, and patch). It adds explicit step-by-step cherry-pick instructions, introduces a summary table showing what gets cherry-picked for each release type, and expands the guidance around single-commit discipline for the final release. Version placeholders are also normalized from lowercase vx.y.z to uppercase vX.Y.Z.
Changes:
- Added a new "Cherry-pick workflow" section summarizing the common pattern across all release types
- Added explicit shell commands for cherry-picking
versions.yamland optional commits onto the release branch during RC creation - Clarified the final release flow to require a single commit (version bump + release notes) and provided detailed cherry-pick steps with branch naming conventions
