Issue #, if available:

Description
See test run here https://github.com/aws/aws-database-encryption-sdk-dynamodb/actions/runs/16919400700

Reason for no automatic PR creation?

When a PR is created by a GitHub Actions workflow using the built-in GITHUB_TOKEN, GitHub does not trigger other workflows (such as our PR CI which runs on pull_request) for security reasons. This is a documented limitation designed to prevent accidental workflow recursion. As a result, automated PRs from the release workflow always remained in a “Waiting for status to be reported” state because the required CI checks never ran.

This is well documented here: https://docs.github.com/en/actions/how-tos/write-workflows/choose-when-workflows-run/trigger-a-workflow#triggering-a-workflow-from-a-workflow

When you use the repository's GITHUB_TOKEN to perform tasks, events triggered by the GITHUB_TOKEN, with the exception of workflow_dispatch and repository_dispatch, will not create a new workflow run.

As a demo of this behavior, see this PR: aws/aws-encryption-sdk#799
