feat: read the release assets asynchronously (#552)

Previously all assets were being read synchronously into memory, making
the action unsuitable for releasing very large assets. Because the
client library allows stream body inputs (it just forwards it to the
underlying `fetch` implementation), just do it.

The idea is also suggested by @enumag in
#353 (comment).

Fixes: #353
