Description

If there is a bug in this action, the bug won't reveal itself until after the release PR is merged. That seems too late in my opinion. It would be nice if we added a check to release PRs which ran this action in dry-run mode to ensure that everything up to running the actual commands to create a GitHub release and publish the NPM package work as designed.

Additionally, if we could prevent the issue that Maarten had with `@metamask/abi-utils` (where the release PR had to be recreated multiple times) then that would be great as well.

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by tracing the action's release-PR workflow and the entry points that create a GitHub release or publish the NPM package; define which steps dry-run must validate and investigate the @metamask/abi-utils release-PR recreation problem. Done means release PRs can exercise those checks without running the actual publishing commands.
