Subject: [PATCH 1/2] fix: serialize per-package releases in release.yml

Releasing "all" fanned the matrix job out in parallel, so the 2nd and
3rd release-it runs would race to commit/push their version bump to
main from the same starting commit and likely fail non-fast-forward.
Add max-parallel: 1 to serialize them, plus a workflow-level
concurrency group so two manual release runs can't overlap either.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] feat: add dry-run and per-package change detection to
 release workflow

Auto-skip unchanged packages when releasing "all"; picking one driver
still forces its release regardless of changes.
