Re-entrant release-do-nothing script 🙏🏻 #5327

📰 Custom Issue

As a core dev and recent iris release manager, I totally ❤️ the release_do_nothing.py script.

It gives me the confidence of getting the release right first time, so as such it's pretty priceless as it makes my job way easier.

However, I tend to not do the release in one sitting, end-to-end, so mid-release and coming back to it, I have to cycle through the SECTIONS of the script to get back to where I left off.

It would be handy to be able to jump in to the script, starting for a custom SECTION e.g., something like this:

> python release_do_nothing.py --section 10

Or extending the script so that it automatically locally cached the stage of the release so that you can hop back in seamlessly. If this was attractive as a workflow, I'd imaging that you'd also want a way of clearing the cache e.g.,

> python release_do_nothing.py --clean

Thoughts?
