Fix macOS metadata in release archives
The 9.7.0 binary archive contains AppleDouble
._*entries generated by macOS tar from extended file attributes. The._*.jarsidecars are then scanned as plugin JARs and produce loading errors.Set
COPYFILE_DISABLE=1and exclude existing._*and.DS_Storefiles directly in the source and binary tar commands. Update the release guide and changelog.Validation: exercised the exact updated commands with fixture files on macOS BSD tar and Linux GNU tar 1.35 (Debian). Both archives contained zero metadata entries and preserved plugin contents; source packaging still excluded
.git. On macOS, exclusions alone still generated five metadata entries. Shell syntax andgit diff --checkpassed.
