Description

**What would you like to be added**:
Publish the ecr-credential-provider binary in Github releases

**Why is this needed**:
When I set up a custom Kubernetes cluster, I use the ecr-credential-provider from this repository for ECR authentication. However, currently I have to compile and distribute the binary by myself.

It will be very helpful if the binary can be published in Github releases, so that we can download it directly from Github.

Check this as well: https://github.com/k3s-io/k3s/discussions/3012. It should benefit many people.

Research direction

Start by locating the ecr-credential-provider binary and the repository's existing build and release configuration. Determine how that binary is produced and how GitHub releases are assembled; done means users can download the binary directly from a GitHub release without compiling it themselves.
