Subject: [PATCH] Update release script to be compatible with macOS

BSD vs GNU `sed` problems:
```
sed -i '0,/^\$id: .*/s||$id: https://element-hq.github.io/synapse/schema/synapse/v1.157/synapse-config.schema.json|' schema/synapse-config.schema.yaml
sed: 1: "schema/synapse-config.s ...": bad flag in substitute command: 'h'
```
