feat: linux support

[osrim]

What:

Ships Linux x64 and arm64 binaries next to the macOS ones. Linux users can now install the Homebrew formula.

release.yml builds each binary on a runner that can execute it and smoke tests add and install before publishing. The update notice only suggests brew upgrade when the binary came from Homebrew.

Tested how:

• typecheck, lint, fmt:check, 317 tests, actionlint.
• The rendered formula passes brew style.
• Prerelease v0.2.0-rc.1 from this branch ran the full matrix. All four smoke tests passed and the tap step was skipped.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The release workflow now builds four Darwin and Linux binaries, publishes checksums, and supports cross-platform Homebrew assets. Update notices select installation-specific guidance. Documentation covers Linux installation, CI usage, supported platforms, and release validation.

Changes

Cross-platform release support

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Cross-platform release pipeline .github/workflows/release.yml, cli/package.json, docs/releasing.md	The workflow builds and smoke-tests four platform archives, downloads them for checksum generation, and publishes the selected tag. The package version and release documentation reflect the new targets.
Multi-platform Homebrew formula cli/scripts/brew-formula.ts, cli/scripts/brew-formula.test.ts, README.md	The formula generates Darwin and Linux assets for ARM64 and x64 without a macOS dependency. Tests verify URLs, checksums, platform branches, and versioning. Installation guidance covers Homebrew and direct downloads.
Installation-aware update guidance cli/src/core/update-check.ts, cli/src/core/update-check.test.ts, docs/configuration.md	upgradeHint resolves executable paths and returns either a Homebrew upgrade command or a release URL. Tests cover Cellar paths, non-Cellar paths, and symlinks.
Release and CI documentation CONTRIBUTING.md, docs/commands.md	The documentation adds Linux-focused feedback guidance and describes pinned CI installation, checksum verification, supported platforms, required git, and non-interactive commands.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 6b52a

Linux CI installation guidance may reference a release tag unavailable for the prerelease, causing copy-and-paste installation failures. Release builds, artifacts, checksums, and platform-specific formula coverage are otherwise ready.

In @.github/workflows/release.yml:
- Line 106: Update the checkout ref in the release workflow to use only the
protected tag reference format refs/tags/${TAG}, preventing workflow_dispatch
from selecting branches; also require the release job to run in the
approval-protected environment that contains TAP_DEPLOY_KEY.

In `@cli/src/core/update-check.test.ts`:
- Line 42: Update the non-Cellar test setup around upgradeHint to use a
nonexistent path under the existing temporary directory instead of
/usr/local/bin/ski. Ensure realpathSync cannot resolve it into a Homebrew
/Cellar/ path, while preserving the intended download-hint assertion.

In `@docs/commands.md`:
- Around line 155-157: Update the SKI_VERSION value in the release download
command to the currently published prerelease version 0.2.0-rc.1, preserving the
existing BASE URL construction and download command.
