ci: make development in develop branch possible (#206)

This PR proposes to use `develop` branch as a development branch keeping
`main` branch stable in case of necessary bug fixes.

The proposed flow (documented in the README as well):

* we make our development in `develop` branch
* once we are ready to release, we make a PR from `develop` to `main`
branch, after the merge new tags will be created from the main `branch`
* go to first step in this list

In case we need to release a bug fix - we can create a PR to main, merge
it, new tags will be created, issue is solved and we can cherry-pick
this commit to the `develop` branch. The similar scenario is working in
the UCC repository right now and the results are quite good.

We can go even further and make a develop branch a default one in this
GitHub repository.

This PR removes existing pre-release from the develop branch -> we don't
want to confuse tags with the ones which will be released from `main`
branch. And essentially it is not necessary to have a release from
develop.

+## Development flow
+
+* All the changes should first go to the `develop` branch (using "squash commit"), `main` branch should contain stable code
+* Official releases are made from `main` branch (when it's time to rollout new template changes):
+  * create a PR from `develop` to `main`
+  * test it
+  * get all the approvals from the team
+  * then merge it using "merge commit" option
+* If bugfix release is needed:
+  * make a change
+  * test it
+  * create a PR to the `main` branch
+  * get all the approvals from the team
+  * merge it using "merge commit" option
+  * backport the change back to the `develop` branch
+  * new version of the workflow is going to be released (v4.17.0 (before) -> v4.17.1 (after)) and it will automatically applied to all the repositories
