Remove Dockerfile and release workflow

[BenjaminRodenberg]

The Dockerfile that we use for building precice/python-bindings currently breaks. The reason is a change in policy regarding installation of Python packages in recent pip versions (see here).

@MakisH We can pass --break-system-packages to install the bindings system-wide. Does this meet your requirements for the systemtests? Or would you rather follow a different approach? Are you actually using the image precice/python-bindings or are you installing via pip install git+https://github.com/precice/python-bindings.git@develop?

This appears now because in precice/precice#2200 we upgraded to Ubuntu 24.04, as decided in the last coding days.

The images published by this repository or by precice/precice are not used by the system tests.

Instead, we use this Dockerfile and install in a venv:

https://github.com/precice/tutorials/blob/962793d5b173d828e2309af017076d8965fcfe79/tools/tests/dockerfiles/ubuntu_2404/Dockerfile#L85-L87

However, this is not even used by our tutorials at the moment, as each Python-based tutorial initializes each own venv. See precice/tutorials#584.

The correct approach for this repository should not be the --break-system-packages, but using a virtual environment. This is what the new policy encourages.

I decided to remove the Dockerfile and the release workflow. I do not think we need it anymore and should use virtual environments instead.

I took care of cleaning up issues related to the topic of releasing the python bindings via docker (see links above).

@fsimonis and @IshaanDesai putting you as reviewers here because of the many issues affected by this PR. I think removing the docker image in favor of pip and venv should save us a lot of maintainment work in the future. Please let me know if I'm missing something. I will merge this PR as soon as I have your approval.

[fsimonis]

Looks sane from my perspective.

[IshaanDesai]

Makes sense 👍
