The @types/archiver patches added followSymlinks to CoreOptions, but this is unnecessary — ARCHIVER_OPTIONS in constants.ts uses plain object inference so followSymlinks is never checked against CoreOptions. The CLI patch also broke CI because install:bundle uses --omit=dev, meaning @types/archiver is absent when patch-package runs.

Thanks @wojtekn for adding those! I have tested running npm install and running npm start and I don't see any errors. I have tested exporting a site with symlinks and I see the symlinked plugin folder in the new site. I have added a commit that removes the types @types+archiver+7.0.0.patch because that patch was not necessary and it was also breaking the CI. Once the CI passes this could be merged. LGTM!

The @types/archiver patches added followSymlinks to CoreOptions, but @types/archiver@7 dropped followSymlinks from CoreOptions (it's still supported at runtime). The CLI patch also broke CI because install:bundle uses --omit=dev, meaning @types/archiver is absent when patch-package runs. Restore the `as archiver.ArchiverOptions` casts at call sites.
