Summary
The purpose of the PR is to fix an outstanding issue with the release CI pipeline failing due to require reviews on the version update PR. The approach taken here are to define bots for versioning the release and setting up a PR and then implemented an auto approve action with a PAT. This action will only act on the PR number raised by the versioning commits and will not trigger on other PRs raised on the repository. The release CI is protected by only triggered by core members of the repository. In future we may further lock this down, but for now this is not necessary.
