Unable to create/upload/publish because can't update draft

[pbrisbin]

We have a workflow where we create a draft release, then upload binaries (by OS) in a matrix, then publish the release. This action is creating a new release in the last step, instead of updating draft to false.

In publish, it creates the draft release as expected.

In upload, it finds the draft release and attaches the binaries to it as expected.

But in publish, it doesn't find the draft release, it creates a new one.

I'm particularly confused why upload works correctly, but publish does not.

There seems to be a few Issues,

• Reusing existing draft release no longer works in GH org #163
• draft status error #253
• Draft release could not be overwrited #284

And PRs,

• Allow updating draft releases #245
• Fix updating draft releases #255

In this area, but they're all multiple years old (is this action still maintained?), so I don't know if they're still applicable.

So it seems the bug is due to https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/blob/master/src/github.ts#LL204C30-L204C30

    // you can't get a an existing draft by tag
    // so we must find one in the list of all releases
    if (config.input_draft) {

The action will only find a draft release if input_draft. This means passing draft: true is the only way to find/update a draft release, which makes it kind of hard when you want to update it to draft: false! I think this is different from the Issues and PRs linked above -- at least, neither of the PRs seem to change this line to correct this behavior.

I opened #357, which solves this use-case for me.
