feat(ci): implement PR-based version bumps with docs sync (#45)
* feat(ci): implement PR-based version bumps with docs sync

Replace direct-push version bumping with PR-based workflow that respects
branch protection rules and combines version updates with documentation sync.

## Changes

### New Workflow: post-merge-pr.yml
- Creates automated PR for version bumps instead of pushing directly
- Combines version bump with documentation sync in single PR
- Respects branch protection rules (no bypass needed)
- Follows semantic versioning based on commit message
- Updates VERSION, package.json, and CHANGELOG.md
- Labels PR for easy identification

### Workflow Behavior
- Triggers on push to main (after PR merge)
- Detects version bump type from commit message (feat/fix/breaking)
- Creates branch: chore/version-docs-sync-TIMESTAMP
- Commits version changes with [skip ci] to prevent loops
- Creates PR with detailed description
- Allows manual review before version is applied

### Benefits
- ✅ Works with branch protection (no special permissions needed)
- ✅ Combines version + docs in one reviewable PR
- ✅ Maintains audit trail through PR process
- ✅ Allows manual adjustments before merge
- ✅ Prevents accidental version bumps
- ✅ Clear separation of concerns

### Disabled
- post-merge.yml → post-merge.yml.disabled (old direct-push workflow)

## Migration Notes

Going forward:
1. Merge PR to main
2. Workflow creates version bump PR automatically
3. Review and merge version bump PR
4. Manually create GitHub release (or add release workflow later)

This fixes the branch protection issues that were blocking automated version bumps.

* chore: trigger CI checks

* fix(ci): prevent version bump loop by checking PR labels

Add PR label detection to prevent infinite loop:
- Check if merged PR had 'version-bump' or 'automated' labels
- Skip version bump workflow if labels are present
- This prevents version bump PRs from triggering more version bump PRs

Flow:
1. Regular PR merges → Creates version bump PR (with labels)
2. Version bump PR merges → Detects labels → Skips workflow ✅

This ensures only actual feature/fix PRs trigger version bumps.
