function Publish-BMReleasePackage
{
    <#
    .SYNOPSIS
    Deploys a release package in BuildMaster.
 
    .DESCRIPTION
    The `Publish-BMReleasePackage` deploys a release package in BuildMaster. The package is deployed using the pipeline assigned to the release the package is part of. This function uses BuildMaster's [Release and Package Deployment API](http://inedo.com/support/documentation/buildmaster/reference/api/release-and-package).
 
    Pass the package to deploy to the `Package` parameter. This can be a package object or a package ID (as an integer).
 
    To deploy a package, it must be part of a release that has a pipeline. That pipeline must have at least one stage and that stage must have a plan. If none of these conditions are met, you'll get no object back with no errors written.
 
    .EXAMPLE
    Publish-BMReleasePackage -Session $session -Package $package
 
    Demonstrates how to deploy a package by passing a package object to the `Package` parameter. This object must have an `id` or `pipeline_id` property.
 
    .EXAMPLE
    Publish-BMReleasePackage -Session $session -Package 383
 
    Demonstrates how to deploy a package by passing its ID to the `Package` parameter.
