Document protected release channels

[dankritz]

Summary

• Documents that stable, beta, and nightly are protected release-channel branches.
• Records that only authorized maintainers should move channel branches and that the current allowlist is dankritz.
• Updates the release workflow to use fast-forward channel publishing and treat rollbacks/non-fast-forward moves as exceptional recovery operations.

Validation

• git diff --check

Publication note

Docs-only change. No channel move is required unless you want nightly to include the documentation immediately after merge.
