name: Always bump VERSION with each release

Always bump the VERSION file as part of the same commit (or immediately prior) when creating a new GitHub release. Do not create a release tag without the VERSION file matching.
|
|
|
|
**Why:** The app's update checker compares the local VERSION file against the latest release tag. If VERSION isn't bumped, the updater shows the wrong version after "installing" an update.
|
|
|
|
**How to apply:** When doing commit + push + release, include the VERSION bump in the commit. If multiple releases happen in one session, bump VERSION for each one — don't assume the first bump covers subsequent releases.
