State the version literally so F-Droid can read it

[SibtainOcn]

The failure

The fdroiddata submission pipeline ran 9 jobs. fdroid lint, fdroid rewritemeta, schema validation, check source code and tools check scripts all passed. One failed:

ERROR: ...checkupdate failed for com.hazel.android : Couldn't find any version information
DEBUG: Parsing manifest at 'build/com.hazel.android/app/build.gradle.kts'
DEBUG: ..got package=com.hazel.android, version=None, vercode=None

The cause

fdroidserver reads the version out of build.gradle.kts with a regular expression and never runs Gradle:

vcsearch_g = re.compile(r'\b[Vv]ersionCode\s*=?\s*["\'(]*([0-9][0-9_]*)["\')]*')
vnsearch_g = re.compile(r'\b[Vv]ersionName\s*=?\s*\(?(["\'])((?:(?=(\?))\3.)*?)\1')

Both need a literal. 1.0.5 had versionCode = hazelVersionCode * abiCodeSpan and versionName = hazelVersionName, reading from gradle.properties, so both matched nothing.

That was introduced in the previous release to make AutoUpdateMode: Version work without hand-editing the recipe. It fixed that and broke this. A build argument would fail the same way: what is not in the file cannot be read from it.

The change

Both are literals in defaultConfig again:

versionCode = 300
versionName = "1.0.6"

The per-architecture codes now derive from the literal rather than the other way round, via android.defaultConfig.versionCode, so there is still exactly one copy of the number. tools/release.ps1 rewrites that copy instead of gradle.properties.

AutoUpdateMode is unaffected: the recipe still carries no version-specific literal, since output: uses $$VERSION$$ and there is no gradleprops.

Verified

fdroidserver's own regexes, imported from the installed package rather than retyped:

versionCode : ['300']
versionName : ['1.0.6']
package     : ['com.hazel.android']
VERDICT: checkupdates can read all three

Merged manifests with no -P arguments, which is how F-Droid builds:

ABI	versionCode	versionName
universal	300	1.0.6
armeabi-v7a	301	1.0.6
x86	302	1.0.6
x86_64	303	1.0.6
arm64-v8a	304	1.0.6

Also

Store changelogs regenerated as 300-304, and short enough that the listing will not truncate them this time. The recipe targets v1.0.6; neither v1.0.4 nor v1.0.5 can be submitted, the first for the foojay resolver and the second for this.
