### Amplify Hosting feature
Deployments
### Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe:
When Heroku deploys a [Review App](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/github-integration-review-apps) it attaches that as a deploy to the Pull Request e.g.

But when Amplify deploys a preview app, it attaches a comment instead:

This causes unnecessary scrolling and GitHub notifications i.e. I want to be notified once of a new PR not twice.
### Describe how you'd like this feature to work
Integrate with GitHub "releases" and attach this preview app to the PR without posting a comment.
Contributor guide
Research direction
The issue names no repository files, tests, or entry points; start by locating the existing Amplify preview-app deployment and GitHub PR comment integration. Done means the preview app is attached to the pull request through GitHub's deployment or release integration without posting a separate comment, while preserving the preview link.
