Subject: [PATCH 1/2] fix: append build info to release notes instead of
 replacing

The 'Update release notes' step in the release workflow ran
'gh release edit --notes \"**Build Information:** ...\"' which
replaced the entire release body written when the release was
created, discarding the changelog/description.

Fetch the existing release body first and append the build-info
footer to it instead of overwriting it.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] fix: guard against null release body in notes-append step

Address CodeRabbit feedback on PR #46: gh release view --json body -q
.body prints the literal string "null" (jq -r quirk) when a release
has no description at all, which would leak into the appended notes.
Use -q '.body // ""' to fall back to an empty string instead.
