Changed release from main to upcoming branch

Description

We want to make sure that we release only versions that have been tested by our "alpha testers" team.

Currently, releasing from main is problematic, because PRs might get merged between the time we got a 👍 from the testers but before we release, meaing bugs can creep in.

Having a pure upcoming release branch, where everything is being tested from allows us to release fully tested and more stable versions.

The new flow will be:

1. PRs are merged into main

2. main is periodically merged into upcoming

3. A new Versions PR is getting created automatically by changesets against the upcoming branch (instead of main).

4. When we are ready to cut a release, we ask the alpha testers to test the pkg.pr.new version from the upcoming branch.

5. After we get the approval that the new version on is checked and verified to be working with multiple projects, we can merge the Vesions PR into the upcoming branch which will kick off the auto release process.

6. After the release we merge upcoming into main so it'll have the latest released version numbers.
