Subject: [PATCH] fix(installer): publish framework-dependent single-file
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Self-contained single-file bundle was crashing at startup with 0xc0000005
in the apphost bootstrap (COR_E_EXECUTIONENGINE), because the Linux Gitea
runner doesn't carry the Microsoft.WindowsDesktop.App runtime pack — the
resulting bundle was missing WPF runtime bits. Disabling compression alone
didn't resolve it.

Switch to framework-dependent single-file: target machines need the .NET 8
Desktop Runtime (x64) installed but the bundle is ~2 MB instead of ~140 MB
and starts reliably. Keep IncludeAllContentForSelfExtract=true so native
deps (e_sqlite3) extract to a temp dir on first run.
