Target glibc 2.28 instead of 2.31 so released Linux binaries run on OracleLinux 8 / RHEL 8 (and Debian 10, Ubuntu 18.04+). 2.28 was Acton's historical floor; the 2.31 bump was only to match the Debian 11 release host and was never a hard promise. The floor is set through Zig's -target <arch>-linux-gnu.2.28, so it is independent of the build host's glibc. The existing `make ldd` check fails the build if acton, lsp-server-acton, or actondb require a GLIBC symbol newer than the target, so the ceiling stays enforced.
