Description

We should add a GitHub action that automatically runs a command to update [Homebrew's kotlin-lanugage-server formula](https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/kotlin-language-server#default) in each new release of the server. This will allow users to simply run `brew update` to fetch the latest language server and will reduce the maintenance costs in manually updating Homebrew with the latest artifacts.

We could consider [Homebrew bump formula](https://github.com/marketplace/actions/homebrew-bump-formula) or other similar actions that might help.

Research direction

Start with the GitHub Actions workflow for releases and review the linked Homebrew bump formula action or a similar option. Confirm how the command should run for each new server release; done means a release updates the kotlin-language-server formula so users can receive the latest artifacts with brew update.
