Improves the release script to create the tarball directly. This
makes it easier to cut new releases as a few manual steps are
now automated. This change also includes some fallback logic
for finding Copybara for Googlers (like it was done previously),
and no longer relies on a release directory to be specified as
$1
argument to the Bash script.
This should partially help with #428
