Please refer to the Backport tool documentation

The org-level policy "Allow GitHub Actions to create and approve pull
requests" is disabled, so the default GITHUB_TOKEN cannot open PRs --
this is what broke the changesets prune job. Point the prune, changelog
release, and backport workflows at a single AUTOMATION_PAT (repo +
workflow scope) instead, replacing the now-removed BACKPORT_PAT.

Dropped the GITHUB_TOKEN fallbacks: under this policy they can only
fail, and a missing-secret error is clearer than the misleading
"not permitted to create or approve pull requests" message.

(cherry picked from commit 49a4163)
