Why not have this return a list of ReleaseNode records?

Fixed in e2a22ca. Changed GetReleasesAsync to return List<ReleaseNode> directly, eliminating the intermediate string conversion.

It seems there are two data types introduced - ReleaseNode and Release, and the code goes from ReleaseNode to string, to release. Don't add extra types and extra conversions.

Fixed in e2a22ca. Removed the custom Release type and the extra conversions. Now GetReleasesAsync returns List<ReleaseNode> directly, and ReleaseNode is used throughout the application (in GitHubData, LookupData, etc.). The flow is now: GraphQL response → ReleaseNode → used directly.
