build: update to support BETA releases

https://github.com/orgs/AlaskaAirlines/discussions/556

This code diff represents changes made to multiple files in a Git repository. Let's break it down:

1. `.github/settings.yml`:
   - Line 38: The `branches` section is modified. The `name` field for the `master` branch is removed, and a new field `&default_protection` is added.
   - Line 59: The `contexts` field under `required_status_checks` is modified. The duplicate word `contexts` is removed.
   - Line 67: Two new branches, `master` and `beta`, are added with the same `&default_protection` settings.

2. `.github/workflows/testPublish.yml`:
   - Line 29: The condition for the `release` job is modified. It will now trigger on a push event to either the `master` branch or the `beta` branch.

3. `package.json`:
   - Line 71: The `release` section is modified. The `branch` field is replaced with an array of `branches`. The `main` branch is added, and the `beta` branch is added as a prerelease branch.

These changes include modifications to branch protection settings, the addition of new branches, and changes to the release workflow configuration.
