ci(github): enable manual publishing of custom git tags via input args

The `all-nodejs-packages-publish.yaml` workflow now has an input parameter
where one can specify an arbitrary release git tag (such as v2.0.0-rc.5)
to be the one to be published.

This will help us in scenarios where the release automation script failed to
run on GitHub and we have no way of publishing the given release manually
from a local machine (since we do not have access to the npm/ghcr) tokens
of the foundation (which is good security posture that we are happy to have)

In the scenario described above, in the future this will (should) allow us
to fix bugs in the release automation script in commits that come **after**
the failed release and then manually trigger the updated (now functional)
publish job for the older release version.

This will (hopefully) grant us the ability to ensure that releases are not
missing from the registries despite sometimes the automation breaking down.
