Done. The infra ticket is here:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-15323
The description of the workflow in site/README is more or less
copy-pasted from this mail thread. Can probably be improved ...
(anyone: feel free). While writing it down, I realized that this
"promote from staging to publish with complete merges" isn't
parallellizable (if two committers want to make two distinct changes,
and not merge all of it in one go to publish). Oh well, it's a start.
