release: one-command build, sign, publish, and attach — plus dormant workflow (#52)

Implements the full release flow: a single script builds both deb and rpm packages, signs the RPM payload, generates and clearsigns SHA256SUMS, uploads to the Gitea package registry (deb to bookworm/jammy/noble pools, rpm to the fenris group), creates a Gitea release entry with notes, and attaches all artifacts. Key changes: - scripts/release.sh: new release script with --dry-run and --publish modes - tests/test_release.py: 32 structural tests (dry-run output, filenames, revision bumping, bare tag prevention, CI workflow, Makefile targets) - Makefile: added release-run and release-dry-run targets - .gitea/workflows/release.yml: extended dormant workflow with signing, upload, release creation, and artifact attachment (idempotent re-runs) - docs/install/signing-key-ceremony.md: added one-time live probe section documenting throwaway package publish, apt/dnf verification, and cleanup Acceptance criteria met: - One release command performs build, sign, publish, and attach - Dry-run mode prints every command; tests assert output without network - Revision bumping on 409 (same-version rebuilds increment release number) - Dormant CI workflow replicates the flow (queues harmlessly without runner) - Live probe documented with throwaway package end-to-end - No bare tags: release API creates tag atomically with release entry Co-authored-by: CommandCodeBot <noreply@commandcode.ai>

+# Create a throwaway package name to avoid polluting fenris metadata
+PROBE_NAME="fenris-regtest"
+PROBE_VERSION="0.0.1"
+```
+
+### Publish
+
+```bash
+# Build a throwaway deb and rpm (use the existing nfpm config with a dummy name)
+# Or use a pre-built package — the probe tests the registry path, not the build
+
+# Upload deb to all codename pools

+
+```bash
+# On a Fedora machine:
+sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo https://git.bongbetic.com/xavierk/Fenris/raw/branch/main/packaging/fenris.repo
