fix(release): tag only, before the cutover fires this for the first time
The same two faults link/release.yml has, in the copy this repo was
forked from -- and this one has never run at all, so the cutover would
have been its first execution.

An empty template expression written literally in a comment makes the
runner fail to build the "Commit version bump and push tag" step and
skip it WITHOUT failing the job. link carried that for six releases,
which is why its Cargo.toml still says 0.1.0 while its tags reach
v1.1.1; the tags exist because the release API creates one when it
publishes.

And the step pushes to main, which is protected -- the bundle job
proved that today with `pre-receive hook declined`. A first release
must not depend on a write to a protected branch.

So the tag is the version, as in servuo-plugins. The version is still
written into Cargo.toml before building, so a released binary
self-reports correctly; it is simply not committed back.

The prerequisites header said `main` must accept a direct push from the
CI user. It does not, and it should not; that line is replaced with the
reason.

# Automated build + release for the Runic Gateway installer.
#
# Trigger: every push to `main` (i.e. every merged PR).
#
# Flow (two conceptual halves, kept separate on purpose):
#
# ┌── RELEASE ENGINE (language-agnostic) ─────────────────────────────┐
# │ reads: latest v* git tag + conventional-commit subjects │
# │ produces: next version, changelog, and (at the end) the release │
# └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
# ┌── RUST ADAPTER (the only Rust-specific part) ─────────────────────┐
# │ consumes: the version │
# │ produces: the artifacts (linux bin, windows exe, SHA256SUMS) │
# └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
#
# This is RunicGateway/link's release.yml with the adapter retargeted at this
# repo's crate — exactly the reuse its header anticipated. Differences from link:
#
# • The crate lives at the REPO ROOT, not in a subdirectory.
# • The crate guard (below) — this repo has no Cargo project yet.
# • Artifact names follow docs/installer/PLAN.md §3.
#
# ── Crate guard ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
# The repo is in the planning phase. With no Cargo.toml there is nothing to
# build, so the plan step forces RELEASE=false and the job exits green having
# done nothing. It starts cutting real releases the moment Phase 1 lands the
# crate — no edit required here.
#
# ── Unsigned releases ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
# Per PLAN.md §3, installer binaries are deliberately UNSIGNED: SHA256SUMS is
# the trust anchor. That makes the checksum step below load-bearing rather than
# a nicety — do not drop it, and keep SHA256SUMS attached to every release.
#
# Version bump (conventional commits since the last v* tag):
# feat!: / BREAKING CHANGE -> major feat: -> minor fix|perf: -> patch
# nothing releasable -> no release is cut
# (first ever run, no tag) -> releases the current Cargo.toml version as-is
#
# Prerequisites (Settings → Actions → Secrets on RunicGateway/installer):
# REGISTRY_USER — Gitea username the token below belongs to
# REGISTRY_TOKEN — Gitea access token with `write:repository`, so it can push
# the release tag and create the release.
#
# `main` needs NO push exception: this workflow tags and publishes, and never
# writes to a branch. Keeping it that way is deliberate — a first release that
# depends on a write to a protected branch fails at the worst possible moment.
