🐛 ensure release job blocks PRs, fix broken markdown format

[twentylemon]

Summary

#1001 for some reason auto-merged despite the test check failing. release is the only check that is required for branch protections, and it was skipped because test failed, which apparently counts as succeeding. Docs say use the always() conditional expression in addition to needsuse the always() conditional expression in addition to needs, but that isn't exactly useful either since we want release to just be a marker. Chaining always() with failure() should work? Draft for testing it out. contains works better, actions link to failure.

This also fixes the broken format.
