Cut releases from main only, enforced where it can be

main is protected on the remote and takes no direct pushes, so a release
arrives as a pull request from dev. Document that flow.

`make image` refuses to run outside main. That check has to live locally:
the tag and the image are made before anything reaches the remote, so branch
protection cannot catch a release built from the wrong branch.

A pre-commit hook was tried and dropped. It needed installing per clone, so
it enforced nothing that the remote was not already enforcing, while implying
it did.
