`src/version.ts` carries an `x-release-please-version` marker so it is bumped alongside
`package.json`; `tests/version.test.ts` fails if the two ever drift.

Immutable releases are enabled on this repository, so a tag name is burned permanently the
moment a release publishes under it — deleting the release and the tag does not free the
name, and release-please fails with `tag_name was used by an immutable release`. Never
