For a tag build that generates a release page, try to deduce the git branch to
which the tag we're building corresponds and add that to release notes.

Subject: SL-20546: Make dependency on build job explicit, not indirect.

The release job has been dependent on sign-and-package-windows and
sign-and-package-mac, each of which depends on build. But that indirect
dependency doesn't convey access to ${{ needs.build.outputs.xxx }}. Add the
build job to direct dependencies so release can access its outputs.

Subject: SL-20546: PyGithub was only needed for local which_branch.py.

Now that which_branch.py has moved to viewer-build-util, so has the PyGithub
dependency.

Subject: Leverage action-gh-release's new previous_tag input.

This should (!) allow us to generate full release notes relative to the
previous viewer release, instead of letting action-gh-release guess
incorrectly.

Also try again to add to the release page a back-link to the specific build.
