ci(release): single source of truth release architecture with build-time materialization from pyproject.toml by @calchiwo in #233

This release moves ExplainThisRepo to a build-time normalization release model centered on pyproject.toml as the single source of truth. CI now extracts the canonical version, rewrites package.json, package-lock.json, ExplainThisRepo.csproj, and generated version files before any tooling runs, then builds and publishes npm, NuGet, and GitHub release artifacts. It also adds release architecture documentation, contributor guidance, and bumps the project version to 0.28.0.
