ci: add explicit git ref for prerelease
Allows the prerelease job to be run post-merge on master branch.
What changed, and why it matters
This is a one-line change to the project's GitHub Actions CI workflow. It adds an explicit git reference (the previous commit SHA) when running pre-release checks, so the check can run correctly after a pull request is merged into the master branch. There is no change to the Rust library code, no security fix, and no vulnerability.
No security action needed. This is a routine CI maintenance change.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The commit modifies .github/workflows/rust.yml. The prerelease job command is changed from cargo rbmt prerelease to cargo rbmt prerelease --baseline ${{ github.event.pull_request.base.sha || github.event.before }}. This supplies a baseline git ref for the rust-bitcoin-maintainer-tools prerelease action when github.event.pull_request.base.sha is unavailable post-merge, falling back to github.event.before. It is purely a CI configuration convenience.
