1dfd89ea67 feat(release): make desktop releases immutable (#3568)
## Summary
- add a manual desktop release preparer that regenerates one
version-only candidate from current `origin/main`
- validate deterministic complete changelog accounting, candidate
authorship, allowed files, exact-head approval, required checks, and
two-parent merge topology before tagging the reviewed candidate
- move desktop tags/releases from `v*` to `desktop-v*` while preserving
relay, chart, push-chart, and mobile behavior
- stage all four platform outputs in Actions artifacts and grant GitHub
release write access only to one final all-platform-gated publisher
- publish the versioned release only after complete artifact assembly;
update stable `latest.json` last; never promote prereleases or published
rebuild outputs

## Safety properties
- desktop tags point to the reviewed candidate SHA, not the merge commit
- release builds remain tag-bound and reverify tag == checked-out HEAD
- one final writer fails closed on artifact basename collisions
- per-tag concurrency serializes publication without cancellation
- published reruns do not replace immutable versioned assets or promote
signatures from a rebuild
- candidate branches use an explicit remote OID lease when regenerated

## Validation
- `scripts/test-desktop-release-candidate.sh`
- `scripts/test-release-ref-contract.sh`
- `scripts/test-mobile-release-contract.sh`
- changed workflow YAML parsing (Ruby Psych)
- changed shell syntax (`bash -n`)
- `git diff --check`
- push hooks: branch-skew, Rust workspace tests (1,853 passed), desktop
Tauri tests (3 passed)

## Coordinated companion
- squareup/buzz-releases#79 updates the manually entered desktop
source-tag contract to stable-only `desktop-v*`
- merge the private contract companion before the first namespaced
desktop release

## Rollout blockers (no settings changed here)
Before the first candidate/release:
1. enable merge commits in repository settings
2. allow `merge` in ruleset `13596885`
3. require approval after the last push in ruleset `13596885`
4. include `refs/tags/desktop-v*` explicitly in release ruleset
`14378754`
5. prove the non-publishing candidate/merge/tag/artifact validation path
before any production release

Do not test the old workflow with a prerelease: it can still mutate the
production rolling updater release.
