## Summary
- remove the release packager's undeclared dependency on host `zip` and
`unzip` executables
- create and round-trip validate ZIP artifacts in Node with explicit
paths, permissions, timestamps, CRC checks, and resource limits
- preserve the existing archive filename, checksum, inventory, and
top-level `dist/` contract
## Root cause
After the prebuilt-dist integrity repair passed on master, Frontend
Release reached packaging and failed with `spawn zip ENOENT` on the
self-hosted runner. The workflow never installed or checked either
archive executable.
## Verification
- focused release/deployment tests: 57/57 passed
- packager tests: 9/9 passed, including empty `PATH`, cross-timezone
determinism, exact archive entries, permissions, and oversized
sparse-file rejection
- real production build: 735 files packaged successfully with an empty
`PATH`
- repeated real packaging produced byte-identical archives
- Info-ZIP test/list/checksum validation passed
- extraction under `umask 077`: every directory is `0755`; all 735 files
extracted
- extracted inventory exactly matches the source inventory
- ESLint and Prettier passed
