Update CI workflow for release process and enhance changelog extraction

- Modified the release workflow to output the tag name instead of upload URL and release ID.
- Improved changelog extraction with error handling and default release notes creation if extraction fails.
- Switched to using softprops/action-gh-release for creating releases and uploading assets.
- Added macOS dependency installation step for UI tests and refined CMake configurations for better build control.
- Enhanced packaging steps to include documentation and assets in the release artifacts.
