feat: add support for BETA releases

Code diff represents changes made to two YAML files: .github/settings.yml and .github/workflows/testPublish.yml, as well as a package.json file.

In the .github/settings.yml file, the following changes were made:

1. The v4.0-rc branch was modified to require code owner reviews before merging.
2. The master branch was modified to require at least one approving review on a pull request before merging.
3. The beta branch was added with the same branch protection settings as the master branch.
4. In the .github/workflows/testPublish.yml file, the following changes were made:

The release job was modified to trigger on push events to the master branch or the beta branch.
In the package.json file, the following changes were made:

1. The release configuration was modified to include the beta branch as a release branch with prerelease set to true.
2. These changes are related to branch protection settings and release configurations for a GitHub repository.

The updates in the ./template directory mirror the changes made in the root directory. Changes are intended to
update the default configuration for new projects based on this template.

In the ./template/.github/settings.yml file, the following changes were made:

1. The main branch was modified to use the default_protection settings.
2. The beta branch was added with the same branch protection settings as the main branch.
3. In the ./template/.github/workflows/testPublish.yml file, the following changes were made:

The release job was modified to trigger on push events to the main branch or the beta branch.
In the ./template/package.json file, the following changes were made:

1. The release configuration was modified to include the beta branch as a release branch with prerelease set to true.
2. These changes are related to branch protection settings and release configurations for a GitHub repository.

They ensure that new projects created from this template will have these settings by default.
