Migrate build/release pipeline to goreleaser#55
Merged
Conversation
Replaces the hand-rolled justfile cross-compile/dpkg-deb packaging with goreleaser (.goreleaser.yaml), which now also produces .rpm packages via nfpm for free. justfile becomes a thin wrapper around goreleaser, CI workflows call it directly instead of the previous-tag/softprops-release dance, and the now-redundant control file is removed. Snap packaging is left untouched since goreleaser doesn't build snaps. Also updates the README with an RPM install section, notes that Windows/ FreeBSD binaries are published too, and fixes the stale `go get` install instructions to `go install`.
