serialization/parsing flow to support commands using staged_path.dirname without
producing rejected baseless paths such as "./helper" or "{{staged_path}}/..".
Add a flight-step assertion covering a command like
"#{staged_path.dirname}/helper", preserving existing staged-path behavior.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick winPreserve the structured staged-path base when serializing flight commands.
CaskFlightSteps#runcurrently serializesrun "#{staged_path}/helper"as{"path":"{{staged_path}}/helper"}. Without a base, the Rust parser rejects this multi-component relative literal path. Withbase: :staged_path, execution expands the template to an absolute path, then rejects it as an invalid based path. A caskpreflight_stepsorpostflight_stepsblock can reach this path throughrun.Serialize the template prefix as a structured base and remove it from the path:

Third-party casks evaluated from Ruby can now use Homebrew's
staged_pathDSL without requiring Homebrew metadata. This unblocks casks such as AeroSpace while preserving the two path forms Homebrew serializes:$HOMEBREW_PREFIX/Caskroom/<token>/<version>{{staged_path}}template, while commands rooted there use Homebrew’s structuredstaged_pathbaseFor example, this now installs the app, CLI, and shell completions from AeroSpace's tap:
Metadata-time
Dirglobs are kept hermetic and return no host filesystem matches. This matches Homebrew's published metadata behavior for AeroSpace: its dynamically enumerated manpages are not linked, consistent with mise's existing treatment of static manpage artifacts.Relates to discussion #13283.
