Replace tag-based tracking (workflow-changelog) with GitHub Actions API
to track last successful workflow run. This approach is more reliable and
eliminates the need to manage tags.
Changes:
- Use gh run list to get last successful run's commit SHA
- Remove tag creation/deletion step
- Delete workflow-changelog tag from repository
- Update changelog skill documentation

The workflow was failing with "Authentication failed" when attempting
to push the workflow-changelog tag. The anthropics/claude-code-action
modifies git configuration during PR creation, which breaks subsequent
tag pushes.
Added ssh-key parameter to checkout step to use SSH authentication,
matching the approach in updateAuthors.yml and other workflows.

Only update the workflow-changelog tag if the Claude step completes
successfully, preventing tag advancement on failures.
