chore(deps): Bump devantler-tech/actions/.github/workflows/create-release.yaml from 8.0.0 to 9.0.0

[dependabot]

Bumps devantler-tech/actions/.github/workflows/create-release.yaml from 8.0.0 to 9.0.0.

Release notes

Sourced from devantler-tech/actions/.github/workflows/create-release.yaml's releases.

v9.0.0

9.0.0 (2026-07-03)

⚠ BREAKING CHANGES

• remove the sync-github-labels composite action (superseded by declarative IssueLabels) (#418)
• All callers referencing old file names, input names, output names, or secret keys must be updated.
• run-dotnet-tests: run-dotnet-tests no longer accepts app-id or app-private-key inputs. Callers pinning by SHA are unaffected; on repin any still-passed values are simply ignored (unexpected-input warning).
• the setup-copilot-skills/update-copilot-skills action paths are removed and setup-agent-skills's agent input is renamed to agents. Consumers on a pinned major (e.g. @​v4) are unaffected until they bump; migration guides are in each action's README.
• the codecov-token input is removed from both actions. Callers must stop passing it (the reusable workflows are updated in lockstep).
• copilot-skills: setup-copilot-skills and update-copilot-skills both remove the skills-lock input; setup-copilot-skills also removes the source input and redefines skills as the sole list input. Delete any skills-lock.json and move each entry onto its own <owner/repo> <skill> line in setup-copilot-skills.with.skills.
• Action directories and input names have been renamed.

A rabbit hops through workflows deep,
One digit shifts, a version leap,
From eight to nine, the SHA turns bright,
A tiny change, reviewed just right,
Hop, hop, release — all set for flight! 🐇
