release: produce a versioned per-browser artifact and pin the Chrome extension id (closes #310)

manifest/chrome.json now carries a fixed public key, so the extension id and the chrome.storage.local partition holding the wallet stay stable across checkout moves and re-clones instead of being derived from the absolute path. A release entrypoint produces a self-contained versioned artifact per browser, including the files that sit at dist/ root outside both browser directories. One version source of truth, enforced: the build fails naming the culprit when the two manifests and package.json disagree, and BUILD_COMMIT now marks a dirty tree as dirty. Firefox ships an unsigned XPI; the README states that release Firefox and ESR refuse it, that Developer Edition or Unbranded is required, and that Remove is irreversible except from the recovery phrase, which is asserted by test.

+// The version, and the rule that there is only one of it.
+//
+// Three files declare a version and none of them can be derived from another:
+// Chrome and Firefox each need their own manifest, both are copied to dist/
+// verbatim (tests/manifest.test.js asserts that what is in manifest/ is what
+// ships), and package.json's copy is what build.js compiles into the About
+// screen. So the single source of truth is enforced rather than generated —
+// they must all agree or there is no version and no build.
+//
+// Reading one of the three and ignoring the rest is what this replaces. That
+// shape cannot fail: it silently ships an extension whose About screen and
+// whose browser-reported version disagree, and whose release artifact is named
+// after whichever file the packager happened to read.
+//
+// Required by build.js, script/lib/package.js and tests/version.test.js, so
+// the build, the release artifacts and make check all apply the same rule to
+// the same files.
