fix: pass a boolean to the reusable workflow's force input — releases dead since May - #49

Conversation
github.event.inputs.force || 'false' evaluates to the STRING 'false' on push events; the reusable workflow declares force as type: boolean, so GitHub rejects the call before any job starts (the release has been silently dead since the CI simplification). == 'true' yields a real boolean on both push (null == 'true' -> false) and dispatch.

Problem
Releases from this repository have been silently dead since the CI simplification: the
Releaseworkflow fails at trigger time with zero jobs started ("This run likely failed because of a workflow file issue"). The May-13 release is still the latest.Root cause
On
pushevents this expression evaluates to the string'false', but the reusable workflow (actions-mn/.github, metanorma-release.yml) declaresforceastype: boolean. GitHub validates workflow_call inputs before starting anything — a string for a boolean input aborts the run.Fix
A real boolean on both triggers:
push→null == 'true'→false;workflow_dispatch→'true' == 'true'.Merging this also republishes all 134 administrative documents with their new abstracts (PR #48).
