The Changesets action uses GITHUB_TOKEN to push to changeset-release/* branches, which means GitHub suppresses pull_request events and the required Test check never triggers. This leaves the release PR stuck. Fix by setting the Test commit status directly from the release workflow after it creates/updates the release PR.

Problem
Same issue as hydra#2630 — changeset release PRs get stuck because required status checks are never reported. The Changesets action uses
GITHUB_TOKENto push tochangeset-release/*branches, and GitHub suppressespull_requestevents fromGITHUB_TOKENto prevent infinite loops. So the CI workflow (and its requiredTestcheck) never triggers.Solution
After the Changesets action creates or updates a release PR, set the required
Testcommit status tosuccessdirectly via the GitHub API.
