implement automated tagging and creation of github release
potentially of merge of PR which upticks a root VERSION file similar to how we version in other repos.
TODO -- look into possible trigger alternatives with goreleaser
Step 1 - change VERSION file then triggers a tag created and pushed to github
Step 2 - Pushing tagging triggers goreleaser to life to create and publish the artifact, and then also automatically create the github release
Step 3 - slack subscriptions to releases for this repo then slack out notification of availablity of new release in slack
