Automate the release process.

This was originally 8bf825940c834b44e7c7ceb17b26b30e5ff96aba in Gabble.

The idea is that you smoke-test the release, then just run

  % make maintainer-make-release

which generates the tarball, the signature, the signed tag, and the
release mail, uploads the release to telepathy.freedesktop.org, and then
reminds you of the remaining steps (nano version bump, pushing to
upstream, and sending the mail).

If you want to do all the local bits, but not send anything, just run:

  % make maintainer-prepare-release

then do whatever you want to do with the tarball etc. If you think it's
ready, run:

  % make maintainer-upload-release
