Subject: [PATCH] fix(release): skip pyproject.toml without a static project
 version

A pyproject.toml that holds only tool config (no [project] table) or lists "version" in [project].dynamic now prints an INFO line and is skipped, like a missing file. A [project] table with neither a version nor a dynamic entry still raises.
