Workflow for publishing UCD

Basic separation of input/ouput:

- $1 and $2 are now static because the workflow is run in an isolated environment and the cwd is always the repo root.
- Set dynamic inputs in the workflow as env variables.
- Upload built files as a workflow artifact.

Git doesn’t preserve complete file permissions, and the zipping/unzipping process doesn’t reliably preserve file permissions. Therefore file permissions need to be normalized at deployment site.

The “Copy files from elsewhere” note needs to be documented in data-workflow.md#publication.
