I think you could build on this action https://github.com/actions/github-script/ which provides a JS client for the GitHub API.

It looks like it supports all of the API routes you would need including:

https://github.com/actions/github-script/blob/b507739f17c210...

To actually perform the release update.

it's strange to me this isn't a first class feature

Thanks for the tip. I don't really know JS so I may dig into this if it becomes a major burden. For the time being I'll just manually delete the prerelease between pushes
