Description

Description

It would be nice to be able to use this automation tool to create a prerelease version. It would need to create a prerelease version and upload it to pypi and testpypi as well as create a prerelease in GitHub. The testpypi upload workflow would also need to be updated to properly handle the postN versions that are uploaded (it may need to include the release candidate info in the custom version)

Research direction

Start by reading _reusable-package-release.yml and the testpypi upload workflow to understand the current versioning and publishing flow. Done means prerelease versions are uploaded to PyPI and TestPyPI and a GitHub prerelease is created, including correct handling of postN versions and release-candidate information.
