Subject: [PATCH] fix(release): composer install before zip so central locales
 ship
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The plugin's textdomain loader reads from
vendor/escalated-dev/locale/languages/escalated-{locale}.mo (introduced
in #51 / cfc9c81). The release workflow built the zip from a fresh
checkout without running composer install, so vendor/ was empty and the
zip silently shipped without central translations — the plugin's
fallback to the legacy in-tree languages/ dir hid the regression at
runtime, but downstream installs miss portfolio-wide updates.

Add a setup-php + composer install step before the rsync. composer.json
itself stays excluded from the zip (end-users don't need it); only the
resolved vendor/ tree is bundled.
