Document the shortcut process for preparing first RC candidates directly from v3-X-test
without opening a PR to v3-X-stable. This is useful for early RCs that are unlikely to be
approved on the first attempt due to bugs found during testing.

Includes a link to the Tests workflow filtered by push events on the relevant test branch,
which the release manager must verify before cutting the RC.

Note: As of Merging PRs targeted for Airflow 3.X
the committer who merges the PR is responsible for backporting the PRs that are bug fixes (generally speaking) to the maintenance branches.

You can attempt to backport this manually by running:

cherry_picker f4713de v3-2-test

This should apply the commit to the v3-2-test branch and leave the commit in conflict state marking
the files that need manual conflict resolution.

After you have resolved the conflicts, you can continue the backport process by running:

cherry_picker --continue

If you don't have cherry-picker installed, see the installation guide.
