Remove version numbers from release artifact filenames

- Update build.sh to create archives without version in filename
- Change lrm-0.6.3-linux-x64.tar.gz to lrm-linux-x64.tar.gz
- Update all documentation to use /latest/download URLs
- Update install-lrm.sh to use static filenames
- Remove README.md from release workflow commits
- Update bump-version.sh to skip README updates
- Filter automated commits from release changelog
- Only LocalizationManager.csproj and CHANGELOG.md are updated during releases

Benefits:
- Permanent /latest/download URLs that never break
- No documentation updates needed on each release
- Cleaner release process with minimal codebase changes
