chore: update .NET version and enhance CI workflows

Updated the .NET version in `build_app.yml` to '9.0.x' and modified artifact names to include "Velopack". Ensured upload steps are conditional on event type.

Added a new job in `releases.yml` for manual deployment to GitHub Releases, which includes steps for version retrieval, .NET installation, application publishing, and Velopack release creation.

Also, added a `<Version>` tag with '1.0.0' in `SketchNow.csproj` to specify the application version.
