The "Regular release" section in README-LOCALSTACK.md predates the weekly auto-release and no longer matches how releases are cut.

Changes:

  • Rename it to Manual release and move it after Weekly auto-release, since the weekly workflow is now the regular path.
  • Limit manual releases to minor/major bumps and urgent fixes that can't wait for Friday.
  • Warn that a pushed tag is published as a full release and skips the localstack-pro validation gate, and show how to keep the gate (gh release edit vX.Y.Z --prerelease).
  • Drop the -pre tag suffix advice: the weekly version lookup and the localstack-pro promotion expect plain vX.Y.Z tags.
