Subject: [PATCH] Refactor publish workflow to clone repository, initialize
 submodules, and authenticate with npm

- Cloned the repository to a temporary directory
- Initialized and updated submodules
- Downloaded modified files
- Set up Node.js environment
- Installed can-npm-publish package as a dev dependency
- Created .temp-npmrc file for npm authentication
- Checked git status in the temporary repository
- Published package if needed using can-npm-publish and npm commands
