Remove deprecated --force flag from shopify app release

[alfonso-noriega]

WHY are these changes introduced?

The --force (-f) flag and SHOPIFY_FLAG_FORCE environment variable on shopify app release have been deprecated for some time (the command currently renders a deprecation warning when they're used). Users have been pointed to --allow-updates / --allow-deletes. This PR removes the deprecated flag and its dead-code paths in preparation for the next major release.

Part of the deprecated-flag-removal stack: #7520 ← this PR → #7522.

WHAT is this pull request doing?

• Removes the --force/-f flag definition and the SHOPIFY_FLAG_FORCE env binding from shopify app release.
• Removes the runtime deprecation warning and the deprecation-warning-only test file (packages/app/src/cli/commands/app/release.test.ts).
• Derives the internal force (skip-confirmation-prompt) parameter passed to the release service as --allow-updates && --allow-deletes, preserving the prior --force semantics: passing both flags skips the prompt.
• Updates the non-TTY required-flag check to reflect that --allow-updates or --allow-deletes are now the only ways to release in CI.
• Regenerates packages/cli/oclif.manifest.json, packages/cli/README.md, and docs-shopify.dev/commands/interfaces/app-release.interface.ts.

How to test your changes?

1. Run pnpm shopify app release --version v1.0.0 --force and confirm it now fails with an unknown-flag error.
2. Run pnpm shopify app release --help and confirm -f, --force is no longer listed.
3. Run pnpm shopify app release --version v1.0.0 --allow-updates --allow-deletes against an app and confirm the prompt is skipped (matching the previous --force behavior).
4. Run pnpm shopify app release --version v1.0.0 --allow-updates and confirm the prompt still appears for deletes if any, as before.
