Releasing

Push a tag to trigger a release:

git tag v0.1.0
git push origin v0.1.0

This runs GoReleaser via GitHub Actions, which:

• Builds binaries for linux/darwin/windows on amd64/arm64
• Creates a GitHub Release with checksums
• Pushes Docker image to ghcr.io/anneschuth/pinchwork-cli
• Updates the Homebrew tap
