TL;DR

Backport #2910 to the compute-plane 1.0 maintenance train. A release retry now validates the retained inventory before accepting it and publishing the release.

Additional Details

• Downloads the existing asset to a temporary file and applies the existing Python validator with the expected version, tag, and commit.

• Keeps valid existing assets unchanged. Validation or download failures stop release publication.

• Applies to future tags containing this commit. Can merge independently of fix(release): verify retained stack inventories on retry #2910.

• Retries still require rendering to succeed. Validation uses the existing Python checks; the Go consumer remains responsible for full inventory validation.

For the Reviewer

The net change is limited to tools/ci/github-release and its Python tests.

For QA

Passed all 99 release-helper Python tests and whitespace checks. Tests use offline fixtures; both success fixtures also passed the existing Go consumer parser in a local overlay check. Runtime QA is not needed. No dependency, license, NOTICE, or documentation changes.

Issues

Relates to #2909. Keep open until main and both maintenance backports merge.
