docs(releases-maintenance): correct three pre-ADR-0125 publish-lane sentences

The rc-vs-GA table's GA Trigger cell, the "both lanes are `workflow_dispatch`"
paragraph under it, and the GA cut step still described the publish lane as it
was before ADR-0125 (2026-08-20): dispatch-started, with a typed version the
releaser supplies. ADR-0125 D1 moved the publish job onto `push: branches:
[main]`, D2 made the `release` environment approval the human act, and D4 kept
`workflow_dispatch` as the repair lane with no `version` input at all.
`.github/workflows/release.yml` implements exactly that, so the docs were the
drifted party.

The 2026-08-07 ruling quotation is preserved byte-for-byte; only the mechanism
prose around it changed. `cut-rc.yml` is still `workflow_dispatch`-only with a
typed version, so the rc half of every corrected sentence is unchanged.

+Both lanes are gated by `environment: release`, and neither publishes anything until
+a human approves the deployment there. What differs since ADR-0125 (2026-08-20) is
+the *start*: `cut-rc.yml` is still `workflow_dispatch`-only — an event no push, bot,
+merge-queue landing or schedule can synthesise — while `release.yml`'s publish lane
+**is** started by the push that lands the Version Packages PR (D1), and is then held,
+**whole**, at the environment gate until a required reviewer approves it (D2). The
+approval is the release act on that lane, so read ADR-0125 D3 before touching it: an
+environment with no required reviewers passes automatically and silently, which on a
+push-started lane is not a weakened gate but no gate at all. (`release.yml` also
+carries a 6-hourly `schedule`, added by #11233; it reaches only the bookkeeping
+`version-pr` job, which has no publish capability by construction.) That is the
+2026-08-07 ruling (「版本发布必须是人工的」) re-implemented, not relaxed, and it is not
+negotiable in either direction — see `release.yml`'s header for the two releases that
+were minted without a human and the lane split that ended it.
