chore(release)!: cut [Unreleased] → [7.0.0] - 2026-04-29

Major release. The breaking change is the removal of DO_NOT_TRACK as
an AxonFlow telemetry opt-out — AXONFLOW_TELEMETRY=off is the
canonical and only opt-out signal. Behavioural change merged in #154;
this release surfaces it as a versioned MAJOR. Also drops the
deprecated `String doNotTrack` overloads from TelemetryReporter's
package-private testability surface.

CHANGELOG cuts the Unreleased section over to a versioned 7.0.0
release dated 2026-04-29 UTC, drops the internal `### CI /
development` block per the user-facing-only changelog policy. Bumps
pom.xml project version to 7.0.0; SDK_VERSION reads dynamically
from pom.properties at runtime so no source-side constant to bump.

Companion releases ship the same day: TypeScript v7.0.0,
Python v7.0.0, Go v7.0.0 (with /v7 module path migration).

-- **BREAKING:** `DO_NOT_TRACK` is no longer honored as an AxonFlow telemetry opt-out. Use `AXONFLOW_TELEMETRY=off` instead.
+### BREAKING
 
-  `DO_NOT_TRACK` was deprecated because it is commonly inherited from host tools and developer environments (CLIs like Codex and Claude Code inject it unconditionally), which makes it an unreliable expression of user intent for AxonFlow telemetry.

 ## [6.2.0] - 2026-04-28 — listLLMProviders() + LLMProvider source-compat
 
 Minor release. New LLM-provider listing API closes the parity gap with the Python + Go SDKs; the rest of the cycle restores `LLMProvider` source-compatibility for callers using the 7-arg primitive shape. Coordinated cycle: TypeScript v6.2.0 / Python v6.9.0 / Go v6.0.0 (major: see SDKCompatibility breaking type change in that release) ship same day.
