Fix the version error in the release workflow

[Serene-Arc]

This hopefully fixes the issue we experienced where the version was not incremented before the package was built. This should make sure that it works correctly.

[Serene-Arc]

Hey @snejus if you wanna push your markdown code to this branch, we can get it all working and fixed in one PR.

[snejus]

Cool, will do! To be clear, do you mean the code that converts rst changelog to md?

[Serene-Arc]

Yes, the part I removed. I removed a bunch of stuff but if you actually have it working, then we might as well add it back in. It'll be a bit of a pain to make it so it's output as part of the action (which is why I removed it in the first place) but it should be manageable.

[snejus]

@Serene-Arc thanks for the confirmation - this makes sense. I don't think this should pose too many issues - let me get on it.

@Serene-Arc See the commits I have just pushed

Bug fixes

• Fix bug where zsh completion script made assumptions about the specific variant of awk installed and required specific settings for sqlite3 and caching in zsh. 🐛 (beet zsh completion bug  #3546)
• Fix bug where all media types are reported as the first media type when importing with MusicBrainz as the data source 🐛 (Bug in new UI when multiple mediums are in one release #4947)
• Fix bug where an interrupted import process poisons the database, causing a null path that can't be removed. 🐛 (Catch when items have no path #4906)

• Fix issue where beet write continuously retags the albumtypes metadata field in files. Additionally broken data could have been added to the library when the tag was read from file back into the library using beet update.

• Plugin lyrics: Fixed issues with the Tekstowo.pl and Genius backends where some non-lyrics content got included in the lyrics

• Plugin replaygain: The type of the internal r128_track_gain and r128_album_gain fields was changed from integer to float to fix loss of precision due to truncation. 🐛 (R128_*_GAIN tags are rounded or truncated #4169)

• Plugin spotify: Improve handling of ConnectionError.
• Plugin unimported: The new ignore_subdirectories configuration option added in 1.6.0 now has a default value if it hasn't been set.

• We now use Python's defaults for command-line argument encoding, which should reduce the chance for errors and "file not found" failures when invoking other command-line tools, especially on Windows. 🐛 (Use Python's standard filesystem encoding for command-line arguments #4507)

For plugin developers

• Allow reuse of some parts of beets' testing components. This may ease the work for externally developed plugins or related software (e.g. the beets plugin for Mopidy), if they need to create an in-memory instance of a beets music library for their tests.
• beets now explicitly prevents multiple plugins to define replacement functions for the same field. When previously defining template_fields for the same field in two plugins, the last loaded plugin would silently overwrite the function defined by the other plugin. Now, beets will raise an exception when this happens. 🐛 (beetsplug: only one plugin can set template_fields per field #5002)

For packagers

• As noted above, the minimum Python version is now 3.7.
• The minimum required version of mediafile is now 0.9.0.
• We fixed a version for the dependency on the Confuse library. 🐛 (confuse dependency requirement permits invalid versions #4167)

• Plugin fish: Add --output option.
• Plugin limit: Limit query results to head or tail (lslimit command only)
• Plugin lyrics: Remove Musixmatch from default enabled sources as they are currently blocking requests from the beets user agent. 🐛 (musixmatch source is broken on lyrics plugin (404) #4585)
• Refactor the test cases to avoid test smells.
• /faq: multidisc: Elaborated the multi-disc FAQ 🐛 (%if{} in my path spec not working for multidisc albums #4806)
