The release script was pushing the RC tag off of a temporary branch that
was never merged back into the release branch. This meant that our RC
and release tags were detached from the rest of the repository.
This patch changes the release script to merge the RC tag back into the
release branch and pushes both the tag and the branch.

This patch updates the release script to use JDK 21 to build the
release. We could also use JDK 17 but using JDK 21 directly does not
change much. We have to verify anyway that the server works with 17 and
the client with 11.

Previously, Apache Kafka was uploading release candidate (RC) artifacts
to users' home directories on home.apache.org. However, since this
resource has been decommissioned, we need to follow the standard
approach of putting release candidate artifacts into the appropriate
subversion directory, at https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/kafka/.

The current release script has a couple of issues:
* It's a single long file with duplicated logic, which makes
it difficult to understand and make changes
* When a command fails, the user is forced to start from the
beginning, expanding feedback loops. e.g. publishing step
fails because the credentials were set incorrectly in ~/.gradle/gradle.properties
