test-msi.ps1 builds the MSI around stub binaries, validates it (ICE) and,
silently: installs into a folder with spaces and a non-ASCII name, upgrades
without naming a folder (it must stay there, one entry in Apps), repairs a
deleted file, uninstalls (files and App Paths gone), and installs to the
Program Files default. Run by a windows-latest job in packaging-lint.yml.
Merges land faster than the hour-long FreeBSD job, so every main run was
cancelled and main went unverified. Only PR pushes cancel now.

The DMG opened as a plain Finder window. It now shows the app icon's figure on
the EffectCraft colour, with EffectCraft.app and the Applications link side by
side.
- packaging/macos/dmg/: background.svg (source; text outlined, the figure an
<image> of assets/app-icon) and dmg-layout.DS_Store (Finder view settings:
window, icon size 128, positions, background), written by generate.py on any
OS, byte-for-byte reproducible, with nothing from the machine that ran it.
- package.sh renders the SVG with resvg (1x + 2x) into a HiDPI TIFF at package
time, so no bitmap is committed; release.yml installs resvg 0.48.1 (pinned,
--locked) on the macOS runner. The image is still built with hdiutil
makehybrid.
- The volume name drops the version: the layout finds the background through
an alias that includes the volume name. The DMG file name keeps the version.

- release.yml: `freebsd` job (FreeBSD 14.3 VM, the freebsd.yml packages) running the new
packaging/freebsd/package.sh; `flatpak` matrix (x86_64 on ubuntu-24.04, aarch64 on
ubuntu-24.04-arm) repackaging the Linux tarball with packaging/linux/flatpak-bundle.sh and the
new ai.storyteller.effectcraft.bundle.yml; both added to the draft release's needs.
- AppImages embed gh-releases-zsync update information and ship a .zsync beside them; the Linux
job installs zsync and checks both.
- version, Linux and web jobs drop `environment: release` (they read no secrets), so a dispatch on
a branch is a full dry run of every unsigned job; the draft release still needs the signed jobs.
- Flatpak finish-args documented and shared by the bundle and Flathub manifests (lint checks they
match); audio, GPU, portals, xdg-pictures/videos/documents, network for the optional model
downloads. The Flathub manifest now also installs effectcraft-cli.
- packaging-lint runs the FreeBSD layout dry run.
- README: Downloads section (every file a release ships) and nav entry; docs/releasing.md updated.

Custom macOS larger runners in a runner group do not pick up jobs; the
built-in M2 Pro label does. Only release.yml uses it, and the
actions_macos_xl budget caps the monthly spend.

The standard macOS runners are shared with all CI and queue for an hour or
more. The macos-release runner (GitHub-hosted M2 Pro) is in a runner group
usable only by release.yml on the release branch, with a monthly spend cap
on the actions_macos_xl SKU.

Release builds add an arm64 MSI and portable zip, cross-compiled on the x64
runner (signing and WiX as for x64). package.ps1 checks each binary's PE
header before packaging: Machine must match -Arch, the app must be a GUI
program and the CLI a console program. It skips the CLI smoke run when an
ARM64 build can't run on the host. A new Windows ARM64 workflow packages the
ARM64 MSI, installs it on a Windows 11 ARM64 runner, checks both installed
exes are ARM64, runs the CLI, and uninstalls. Ported from printcraft#66.

The MSI Icon id had no .ico/.exe extension, which Windows Installer needs for
advertised shortcuts and ARPPRODUCTICON, so both showed a blank icon. Release
builds of the desktop app are now GUI-subsystem (no console window; the CLI stays
a console program), the shortcut/summary description names what EffectCraft does, and
packaging-lint rejects an Icon id without an extension. Found in printcraft#57.

FreeBSD's CI VM (Mesa llvmpipe over GL) failed 22 effectcraft-gpu tests:
- Advanced 3D's camera-depth target was R32Float, which GLES can't render to without
EXT_color_buffer_float: create_render_pipeline failed validation (release builds only log
that and draw nothing). The target is now R32Uint holding the f32 bits (renderable on every
backend, lossless), and GpuContext checks the adapter's format features (render attachment,
blendable colour) and independent blending up front; when they're missing the render
pipelines are never built and Advanced 3D renders on the CPU.
- Signed `%` in the shaders: naga emits GLSL `%`, undefined for negative operands, which broke
the VR effects' horizontal wrap and Cell Pattern's tiling. A shared `imod` never takes `%` of
a negative number.
- asin/acos: Mesa's are coarse approximations (~1e-4 rad), visible in every lens/sphere/cylinder
mapping. `asin_p`/`acos_p` (Cephes' asinf polynomial) are f32-accurate on every backend.
- "Could not lock adapter context": the GL backend has one context lock per adapter with a
timeout, so tests driving devices concurrently panic. Every gpu test helper that hands out a
device holds one process-wide lock for the calling test; ui_web_job_gpu's two device tests
share a lock too.
- On GL, up to 1 % of pixels may flip across a decision boundary (division through a
reciprocal, unfused fma); the GPU-vs-CPU comparisons allow that there only.
Also adds the FreeBSD workflow (from the FreeBSD CI PR) so this branch is checked there.

actionlint's shellcheck flagged SC2015 on release.yml's Install wasm-bindgen CLI step, failing
the Packaging lint workflow on main and release since 2 October.

- effectcraft-cli: support --version/-V/version (the packaging smoke tests call it).
- Linux release job installs libasound2-dev for alsa-sys; deb/rpm depend on
libasound2/alsa-lib; Flatpak gets --socket=pulseaudio.
- packaging/web/package.sh builds with `cargo xtask web` (wasm-bindgen) and zips
<target>/web/dist; the release job installs wasm-bindgen-cli 0.2.129.
- xtask: version.rs (ported from PhotoCraft) called helpers that don't exist here,
so xtask didn't compile; use the local run() and wire up `cargo xtask version`.
