Fix missing files in CTAN zip created by l3build ctan

[muzimuzhi]

Motivation for this change

This PR adds back ./source directory and missing files including licenses and more under ./doc to CTAN zip.

Therefor it makes the content and structure of CTAN zip almost the same as that in pgf_3.1.9.tds.zip, generated by generate_CTANzip() defined in build.lua, with a flattened doc directory structure.

I will show the specific changes perhaps in the form of git diff on tree <dirname> outputs to show what's really changed.

Fixes #1240

I wonder how much sense it makes to ship the source directory in TeX Live. No compiler is going to look in TeX Live for these files and in the highly unlikely case that anyone actually want to use these files, they can also download them from GitHub.

... in the highly unlikely case that anyone actually want to use these files, they can also download them from GitHub.

I never used such utility.

If the decision is to drop source directory, then we might want to add some words in sec. 37 "Writing Graph Drawing Algorithms in C" to point users to ./source/generic/pgf/c directory in GitHub repo.

Interesting all Makefiles in source were not packed into zip by generate_CTANzip(), so I guess the source directory shipped to TeX Live had been incomplete for years.

pgf/build.lua

Lines 323 to 326 in b561e46

	-- Source files
	elseif string.match(f, "^source/.*$") and basename ~= "Makefile" then
	lfs.copy(f, tmppgf .. "source/" .. basename)

I was wrong. The Makefiles under source were zipped.

[muzimuzhi]

The current status of this PR includes only ./doc files in CTAN zip, no ./source files.

I'd like to check whether the Makefiles in ./source/generic/pgf/c work as expected when installed in some <tds tree>/source, but didn't find the time/interest.

On 2026-06-15 a more comprehensive testsuite was introduced for PGF/TikZ. This tests all new contributions against the examples extracted from the manual and checks whether anything has changed to avoid regressions. Since this pull request was opened before that, these tests were not run automatically. I have run l3build check on the result of the merge of this pull request branch into master. The result can be found below.

Tip

Your pull request might have failed some tests. This does not mean that your contribution will be rejected. In fact, depending on the changes you propose, it might even be expected that some tests fail, however, this needs to be evaluated carefully.

All tests passed
