Subject: [PATCH] Fix: resolve Go module zip error by renaming VERSION to
 VERSION.txt

- Rename root VERSION file to VERSION.txt to avoid case-insensitive collision with version/ directory
- Update Makefile.common and RELEASE.md to reference VERSION.txt
- Fixes go: create zip: version/info.go: case-insensitive file name collision: 'VERSION' and 'version'

+1. Update VERSION.txt, applying the next logical version number, without any `v` prefix (e.g.  `0.53.0`).
 2. Update CHANGELOG.md, applying the new version number (this time including the `v` prefix, e.g. `v0.53.0`) and date to the changes listed under ``## main / unreleased`, and commit those changes to the main branch.
 2. Use GitHub's release feature via [this link](https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/releases/new) to apply a new tag. The tag name must be prefixed with a `v` e.g. `v0.53.0` and then use the "Generate release notes" button to generate the release notes automagically ✨. No need to create a discussion or mark it a pre-release, please do make sure it is marked as the latest release.
