admin: automate one more part of the release process

This script automates the process of updating NEWS, performs
the resulting final commit (thus with a consistent log message),
and applies a signed tag (v$VERSION) to the result.
* build-aux/do-release-commit-and-tag: New script.
* README-release: Document it.
