Description

Add support for triggering CodePipeline using GitHub releases.

### Use Case

My team currently deploys software using semantic versioning. Rather than solely relying on merging into branches, it would be great to trigger deployments using releases.

### Other

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating CodePipeline trigger support in the aws-cdk repository and reviewing how GitHub events are represented; then determine how GitHub release events and semantic-version tags should map to deployments. Done means a documented, tested way to trigger CodePipeline from GitHub releases.
