Record the version the Linux arm64 Git build prints - #6

dugite-native's Linux arm64 build of Git v2.56.0 prints "git version 2.56.0.dirty": its Ubuntu build edits Git's tracked Makefile to name the cross-compiler's strip tool, and Git marks a build from a changed tree as dirty. builds.json keeps the pin and adds reportedVersion for that target, which the locator test checks in place of gitVersion; the weekly Git builds check's issue asks for it to be dropped once a newer build reports its Git version.

Verdict: Changes needed
Findings: 0 Should fix, 1 Low, as line comments
Why it's right: the cause is upstream's arm64 Makefile strip edit, and keeping that build with its reported version recorded is the decision #5's second box now names; the test compares with reportedVersion only where a target has it. Full run 43667151840 passed the locator test on all six targets; its one macOS x64 failure (module-activation.test.ts:179, write ENOTCONN) is outside the diff and goes to a flake issue.

Low: nothing ties reportedVersion to gitVersion, so a typo such as "2.55.0.dirty" or "2.56.0-dirty" would be accepted and the locator test would then hold the build to it. Expected fix: refuse a reportedVersion that doesn't match ^.[a-z]+$ (gitVersion's dots escaped), with its own exception, as for the other fields.

Fixed in 852041e: GitTarget now refuses a reportedVersion that is not its gitVersion, a full stop and lowercase letters, with TargetReportedVersionInvalidException and its message in Resources. It checks the prefix with startsWith and the rest with /^[a-z]+$/, so no pattern is built from the version and nothing needs escaping. documents/ARCHITECTURE.md names the check.

A target's reportedVersion must be its gitVersion, a full stop and lowercase letters, or the scripts throw TargetReportedVersionInvalidException, as for the other fields. Agent: DEV3 (developer) Agent-Model: Anthropic Opus 5.5, Medium
Closes #5
Why
main's full run fails on Linux arm64 only: the pinned build printsgit version 2.56.0.dirty, not2.56.0.The build is dugite-native's v2.56.0-2 release, not ours. Its
script/build-ubuntu.shrunssed -i "s/STRIP = strip/STRIP = $STRIP/" Makefilein Git's source tree beforemake strip install. For x64,STRIPisstrip, so nothing changes; for arm64 it isaarch64-linux-gnu-strip, so Git's trackedMakefilechanges and Git's version script marks the build dirty. Git's code is unchanged. desktop/dugite-native#553, still open, passes the strip tool tomakeinstead.The other five pinned builds print their pinned versions: the same test passed on Linux x64, macOS x64 and arm64, and Windows x64 and arm64.

The check files issues only and never editsbuilds.json, so that line is how a newer clean build stops being held to.dirty.README.md, The Git builds, anddocuments/ARCHITECTURE.md: say why the field is there and what the check does with it.Checks
