build(packaging): add Homebrew tap formula and release sync

Build-from-source formula for macOS/Linuxbrew, mirroring the Arch
PKGBUILD. A Gitea workflow recomputes the tarball checksum on each
version tag and syncs the formula into the homebrew-yellowjacket tap
repo, so releases need no manual formula edits.

name: Sync Homebrew formula
# On every version tag, recompute the release tarball checksum and push an
# updated Formula/yellowjacket.rb into the Homebrew tap repo. Keeping the tap
# in a separate repo (github.com/Shadow-Puppet/homebrew-yellowjacket) is what
# lets users install with a single command:
#
# brew install shadow-puppet/yellowjacket/yellowjacket
#
# (`shadow-puppet/yellowjacket` is shorthand for the homebrew-yellowjacket repo;
# brew auto-taps it, so no separate `brew tap` step is needed.)

push:
tags:
- "v*"

# GitHub PAT (or fine-grained token) with write access to the tap repo.

# Gitea source that serves the release tarball referenced by the formula.
