Tag a release on every commit

[ahmetb]

This project is fairly stable, and yet frequently requires new releases due to security fixes (coming in via humans or @dependabot). This requires human in the loop to manually cut a tag to make a new release.

I think we should publish a new patch release on every commit after accepting security fixes.

https://github.com/marketplace/actions/github-tag , or https://github.com/marketplace/actions/tag-release-on-push-action or some other GitHub Action or something like that can help with this purpose.

@stefanb would you be interested in taking this on and giving a shot in your own fork perhaps?
