Subject: [PATCH] chore(release): inject releaseNotes into latest.yml
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

electron-builder doesn't write CLI-supplied --notes into the
auto-update manifest, so clients saw an empty body in UpdateToast
even when the release script logged notes. After the build but
before scp, patch latest.yml in place: append a block scalar
(`releaseNotes: |-`) so multi-line notes survive intact.

Idempotent — skips if a releaseNotes entry is already present
(reruns / hand-edited manifests).
