Making a release in github is quite easy. You can do it from the release
git tag, so it's "retroactive". (we can do it for 9.7.0 right now)

For the release wizard, the Solr Operator has a section to do this:
https://github.com/apache/solr-operator/blob/main/hack/release/wizard/releaseWizard.yaml#L1392-L1400

I'm surprised it's not in the Lucene one already, since I think Solr has it
as well. But it's easy to add nonetheless.

Creating the github release is a step that has been missed before. I know
that I have when I was the release manager for 9.5. I think that it's not
part of the release script that we follow for a Lucene release, which needs
updating. The script does include closing the current milestone.

I just created the missing 9.7.0 release, although the release date will be
off, sadly. I will look at what needs to be done to update the release
script so that we don't miss it in the future.

I opened https://github.com/apache/lucene/pull/12607 to add the missing
step to the release wizard script.
