IMPORTANT: It is critical you use the same tag that you used in the Pre-Release step! Failure to do so will leave things in a broken state.
IMPORTANT: There is currently no way to remove an incorrectly tagged version of a Go module. It is critical you make sure the version you push upstream is correct. Failure to do so will lead to minor emergencies and tough to work around.

./verify_examples.sh
The script copies examples into a different directory removes any replace declarations in go.mod and builds them.
This ensures they build with the published release, not the local copy.
