Added Blueprint support for Render Workflows

You can now manage your workflow services using Blueprints, Render's infrastructure-as-code model.

Define workflows alongside other service types in your Blueprint YAML. Here's an example:

services:
  - type: workflow
    name: my-workflow
    runtime: python
    region: oregon
    repo: https://github.com/render-examples/render-workflows-examples-python
    branch: main
    rootDir: hello-world
    buildCommand: pip install -r requirements.txt
    startCommand: python main.py

Workflows support most of the same configuration fields as other service types, with exceptions noted in the Blueprint YAML Reference.
