Migrate otdfctl into platform monorepo #777

@alkalescent

Description

@alkalescent

Summary

We are planning to migrate the otdfctl CLI from this standalone repository into the opentdf/platform monorepo. After migration, this repository will be archived and marked read-only.

Why

  • otdfctl already depends heavily on platform (SDK, protocol, libs) and uses platform's reusable CI workflows
  • Both repos run each other's e2e tests in CI — consolidating eliminates cross-repo coordination overhead
  • The platform monorepo already supports per-component releases (service, sdk, libs), so otdfctl can maintain independent release cadence

What changes for users

  • Go module path will change from github.com/opentdf/otdfctl to github.com/opentdf/platform/otdfctl
  • Release tags will change from v0.X.Y to otdfctl/v0.X.Y
  • This repository will be archived (read-only) — all existing releases and tags will remain accessible
  • A notice will be added to this README pointing to the new location

What stays the same

  • The otdfctl binary name and CLI interface
  • Separate release cadence (not coupled to platform service releases)
  • All existing CI tests continue to run
