Release strategy

Starting with alpha 12, we'll be changing our release strategy. We've been a bit all over the place, now we're codifying it. Every future 1.0 preview will, from here on out, be published as the latest release both on GitHub and npm.

Once 1.0 goes stable, the latest tag on npm will of course only serve stable future releases like 1.0.1, 1.1.0, and 2.0.0. Future previews like 1.1.0-alpha.1 will then be released only on next.

This also means that the current previews will now be in the main branch. Development on future previews happen in a branch like 1-alpha. This work will be merged into main, which will then trigger a release. This means that the current 1.0 branch will be removed. After the 1.0 release, main will of course always have the current stable release, and future preview versions can be found in next, with development branches merging into next, which then on its turn will merge into main when it reaches a stable release.
