When a release is published, upload a stable source archive.

Add a new github actions script to release a stable source archive.

Github doesn't guarantee stability of source archives for more than 6 months[1].
More stability is required by projects like Bazel Central Registry[2][3].

This is based on a PR submitted to grpc-web: grpc/grpc-web#1464.
