🤖 PadFlow v1.2.4 — CI Manifest Check & Automated Release Pipeline

What's new in this version / Novedades de la Versión 1.2.4:

  • 🤖 CI manifest check (new GitHub Actions workflow):
    • Every push/PR touching the Rust side now runs a CI job that builds both profiles and verifies the release exe embeds requireAdministrator (elevated manifest) while the debug exe does not.
    • Elevation can never silently regress again — the pipeline catches it before any release is cut.
  • 🚀 Fully automated release pipeline:
    • Pushing a v*.*.* tag makes GitHub Actions build, sign and publish the entire release — no local builds or manual uploads needed.
    • Publishes all assets: NSIS installer, MSI, portable exe, .sig signatures and the latest.json update manifest (so the built-in auto-updater picks the new version immediately).
    • Version triple-guard: the workflow refuses to run unless the tag matches tauri.conf.json, package.json and Cargo.toml — fail-fast naming the mismatched file.
    • Manual trigger available (Actions → Release - publish signed binaries → Run workflow → tag input) for smoke-testing.
  • 🔐 Everything from v1.2.3 kept: requireAdministrator manifest (UAC at launch), correct HidHide IOCTL contract (device type 0x8001) so cloaking works without admin, honest diagnostics, Shield Control Center, auto-cloak, cloak on startup, tray controls, live 3 s status refresh and one-click signed auto-updates.

Note: because the app launches elevated, Windows will show a UAC prompt when you start PadFlow. This is intentional — it guarantees HidHide can always apply cloak changes.
