Default version string in build.zig is stale (2026.3.3 vs latest v2026.5.29) #31

Description

@DonPrus

build.zig:6:

const app_version = b.option([]const u8, "version", "Version string embedded in the binary") orelse "2026.3.3";

The fallback is only overridden at release time via -Dversion=..., so anyone building with plain zig build gets a binary that reports 2026.3.3 while the latest release is v2026.5.29.

Suggested fix: bump the fallback as part of the release process (or derive it from git describe / a VERSION file) so local builds don't report a version several releases old.
