Derive CLI version from build info + binary release workflow

[wolveix]

Fixes #51.

Problem

The version was a hardcoded "OpenRDAP v0.9.1" string that had to be bumped by hand each release. It was missed for v0.10.0, so rdap -V reported the wrong version.

Change

versionString() resolves the version in order:

1. releaseVersion injected via -ldflags "-X github.com/openrdap/rdap.releaseVersion=<tag>" (set for released binaries)
2. module version from debug.ReadBuildInfo() so go install github.com/openrdap/rdap/cmd/rdap@vX.Y.Z self-reports
3. (dev) fallback

New release.yml cross-compiles binaries with gox on each release and injects the tag. Added linux/arm64 (the list previously only had 32-bit linux/arm). The CLI golden test normalizes the runtime version to stay deterministic.

Verification

Scenario	Output
go install ...@v0.99.0 (real, via local module proxy)	OpenRDAP v0.99.0
Released zip (ldflags)	OpenRDAP v0.11.0
Plain go build	OpenRDAP v0.10.0+dirty
go build -buildvcs=false	OpenRDAP (dev)

go test ./... passes.

Warning

Review limit reached

@wolveix, you've reached your PR review limit, so we couldn't start this review.

Next review available in: 53 minutes

Enable usage-based reviews in Billing to review now. Otherwise, wait until the next included review is available.
You're only billed for reviews past your plan's rate limits ($0.25/file).

How can I continue?

After more reviews become available, a review can be triggered using the @coderabbitai review command as a PR comment. Alternatively, push new commits to this PR.

To avoid repeated limits, reduce automatic review volume by pausing incremental auto-reviews earlier, using label-based review opt-in, excluding WIP or generated PR titles, or requesting reviews manually when the PR is ready. If your team needs uninterrupted high-volume reviews, an organization admin can enable usage-based reviews.

How do review limits work?

CodeRabbit enforces per-developer PR review limits for each organization. Most developers receive the normal plan review availability.

For paid Pro and Pro+ PR reviews, CodeRabbit uses adaptive limits for sustained high-volume activity. When a developer's recent PR review activity reaches the 95th percentile or higher among CodeRabbit users, additional reviews become available more gradually as earlier reviews age out of the rolling window.

Please refer docs for additional details.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds runtime-derived CLI version output with release linker injection, Go build metadata fallback, and deterministic golden tests. Adds a release-triggered GitHub Actions workflow that cross-compiles Go binaries, archives them, and uploads ZIP files to the GitHub Release. Updates golang.org/x/crypto to v0.54.0.

Replace dead tool gox with native build matrix.

Tool gox dead. No updates since 2018. Go 1.26 might break. Use native GitHub Actions matrix with go build. Less tools. Native support.
