[@semantic-release/github] step fails with 404 error when trying to access non-existent PR # 1
bug
<!-- added by https://github.com/apps/hearts --><a href='https://hearts.dev/projects/3/users/iamkun'><img width='50' alt='' align='right' src='https://hearts.dev/projects/3/users/iamkun/tally.svg'></a>
### Current behavior
# `success` step fails with 404 error when trying to access non-existent PR # 1
## Bug Report
**semantic-release version:** 24.2.7
**@semantic-release/github version:** (latest installed via npm install -g)
**Node version:** 22.18.0
**npm version:** (from GitHub Actions)
**Platform:** GitHub Actions (ubuntu-latest)
## Description
The semantic-release process completes successfully (npm package is published, GitHub release is created), but fails at the final `success` step when `@semantic-release/github` tries to access a non-existent Pull Request # 1.
## Steps to Reproduce
1. Run semantic-release on a repository with the following configuration:
- Default semantic-release setup with `@semantic-release/changelog`, `@semantic-release/git`, and `@semantic-release/github` plugins
- Repository: https://github.com/iamkun/dayjs
- Triggered by push to master branch
2. The release process works fine until the `success` step
## Actual Behavior
The `success` step fails with a 404 error when trying to access `/repos/iamkun/dayjs/pulls/1/commits`, even though the commits being analyzed reference PR semantic-release/semantic-release#2920 (https://github.com/iamkun/dayjs/pull/2920), not PR semantic-release/semantic-release#1.
## Commit Analysis Context
The semantic-release found 8 commits since the last release, including:
- `Merge pull request semantic-release/semantic-release#2920 from iamkun/dev`
- Several other commits with fix/chore/test prefixes
**None of the analyzed commits reference PR semantic-release/semantic-release#1**, yet the plugin attempts to access it.
## Questions/Concerns
1. **Why is the plugin trying to access PR # 1?** The commits being analyzed reference PR # 2920 (https://github.com/iamkun/dayjs/pull/2920), not PR # 1. How does the plugin determine which PRs to process?
2. **Is there a configuration to prevent this?** Can we configure the plugin to skip PR processing or handle missing PRs more gracefully?

## Logs

### Expected behavior
The `success` step should complete without errors, or gracefully handle non-existent PRs.
