Version-numbering impact of this bump (v5.4.0 → v6.4.0)

This is a major bump with a behavioral change that affects our nightly versioning. All six workflows here call the action with pre-release: true for nightly builds (false for stable). The only relevant code change is in src/helpers/bumpVersion.js: v5 computed the new version as semver.inc(version, 'prerelease', identifier), whereas v6.0.0 changed it to semver.inc(version, 'pre' + releaseType, identifier). In other words, when pre-release is set, v5 always incremented just the -trunk.N counter and kept the base version fixed, while v6 now derives the bump from conventional-commits (prepatch/preminor/premajor) and resets the counter to .0.

Concretely, our nightly stream changes from 26.08.0-trunk.0 → .1 → .2 … (base pinned, counter climbing) to 26.08.1-trunk.0 → 26.08.2-trunk.0 → 26.09.0-trunk.0 … — the base version now advances on every nightly (patch or minor depending on the commits) and the -trunk counter is always .0. semver ordering stays monotonic, so downstream version comparisons and the apt repo won't break, but the numbering scheme itself is different, and since nightly has skip_tag=false the created tag names change accordingly. The stable path (pre-release: false) is unaffected — both versions bump straight by releaseType.

Nothing here fails CI, and the Node 20 → 24 runtime change (v6.3.0) is fine since the bump step runs on ubuntu-latest. The only decision is whether the faster-moving base version for nightlies is acceptable.

The good news: v6.4.0 (exactly the version this PR bumps to) adds a pre-release-smart-bump option that restores the old behavior for our case. With pre-release-smart-bump: 'true', when the current version is already a pre-release with the same identifier, the action only increments the -trunk.N counter as long as the base stays on the same target release type. Since our base is calendar-driven (YY.MM.0, i.e. minor > 0, patch = 0, "targeting a minor"), both fix: and feat: commits keep bumping just the counter (26.08.0-trunk.N → .N+1), identical to v5. The only remaining difference is that a major/breaking conventional commit would still jump the base to 27.0.0-trunk.0 — but breaking commits are rare and, since the base is calendar-controlled rather than derived from commits, such a jump was never intended anyway. So rather than merging as-is, I'd suggest adding pre-release-smart-bump: 'true' to the with: block in all six workflows alongside this bump, which keeps the existing -trunk.N progression for real nightly commits.
