docs/releasing: Use the GitLab CI as the test procedure

Browse source 
The GitLab CI is much more useful than trying to hand test.

Ensure the latest code is available - both in your local main and the
relevant branch.
Perform basic testing
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Most of the testing should already be done during the
:ref:`cherry-pick <pickntest>` So we do a quick 'touch test'
Merge the staging branch into the release branch
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- meson dist
- the produced binaries work
This allows the CI to be run against the proposed patches while they are still
on the ``staging/X.Y`` branch, and can be force pushed.
Here is one solution:
Create a new Merge Request, with ``staging/X.Y`` targeting the ``X.Y`` branch.
Be sure to rename the merge request, something like ``merge staging/X.Y in to
X.Y for the X.Y.Z release``. Ensure that ``delete source branch`` is **not**
checked, and set the label to ``release-maintainer`` and ``mesa-release``.
(this prevents the autotagger from running on this MR, which would otherwise
spam labels with a PR that watches of those labels probably don't care about).
Assign to ``@marge-bot`` immediately.
