Subject: [PATCH] ci: sync the stable release into its beta branch on release

Add a sync-beta job to the release workflow. On a published release it
syncs the released branch into its beta branch (core into core-beta,
pro into pro-beta): a clean merge is pushed directly, a conflict or a
rejected push opens a pull request for manual resolution instead of
failing.
