Automated release PR for version 4.16.0.

Also streamlines script/release. The previous script failed on macOS because sed -i behaves differently there, and it kept running after the errors. Changes:

  • Use perl for in-place edits and stop on the first error.
  • Run the prerequisite checks once, pull automatically when behind, and install gems before building the docs.
  • Fix the existing-tag check and commit deprecation.rb on major releases.
  • Add RELEASE_DRY_RUN=1 to test the script without pushing or opening a PR.

- Replace `sed -i` (incompatible between BSD and GNU sed) with perl.
- Fail fast with `set -euo pipefail` and verify each edit.
- Run prerequisite checks once, fast-forward pull automatically.
- Install gems after the version bump so docs:build doesn't fail.
- Restore lockfiles before bumping the version so local bundler
  platform changes aren't committed.
- Fix existing-tag check (tags are prefixed with `v`).
- Commit deprecation.rb changes on major releases.
- Print reset instructions on failure; add RELEASE_DRY_RUN.
