fix(print): enumerate all EPIJ_Qual quality options (#180)

The Phase 1 (#183) quality plumbing already covers detection,
extraction, capture, and lp emission — this change proves the Epson
path end-to-end with recorded fixtures.

- CupsParserTests: replace the synthetic cupsPrintQuality listing with
  the recorded XP-55 line (301 302 *303 308 304 305 307 — driver order,
  308 between 303 and 304); assert all seven ids enumerate unsorted,
  the * default is 303, all seven PPD labels resolve, and EPIJ_Qual
  wins detection over OutputMode/Resolution (R11).
- CupsOptionsFilterTests: captured EPIJ_Qual + canonical quality keys
  survive the filter (roster verified complete post-#183 — no source
  change needed; EPIJ_Quality kept as harmless alias, R16).
- LpArgsTests: explicit quality 305 emits -o EPIJ_Qual=305.
- PrintSessionViewModelTests + UI lpoptions fixture: recorded
  seven-choice line feeds the picker; Stage 2 picker lists all seven
  entries in driver order (new UI test).

+packaging and CI:
+
+- **`ICCERY_RELEASE_TAG`** — `RELEASE_TAG` env when it matches `v[0-9]*` (CI
+  tag builds), else `git describe --tags --always --dirty --match 'v[0-9]*'`.
+  Stamped into the bundle's `ICCeryReleaseTag` resource (a generated
+  Info.plist cannot carry custom keys); the About dialog shows
+  `tag (marketing)` — e.g. `v2.0.0-pre2-grok (2.0.0)` — falling back to the
+  plain version when untagged.
+- **`MARKETING_VERSION`** (`CFBundleShortVersionString`) — first three numeric
+  components of the tag core. Must equal `project.yml`'s
+  `MARKETING_VERSION` on tag builds — packaging hard-fails on mismatch, so
+  bump `project.yml` on `develop` *before* tagging.
+- **`CURRENT_PROJECT_VERSION`** (`CFBundleVersion`) — `BUILD_NUMBER` env
+  override, else `git rev-list --count HEAD`. A single monotonically
+  increasing integer per Apple's macOS convention (Mac build numbers never
+  reset per version, unlike iOS).
+
+Tagged/described DMGs carry the tag: `ICCery-2.0.0-pre2-grok-<build>.dmg`;
+plain releases keep `ICCery-<ver>-<build>.dmg`.
+
+Release procedure: bump `MARKETING_VERSION` in `project.yml` on `develop` →
+merge `develop` → `main` → tag the release commit `vX.Y.Z[-suffix]` → push
+the tag. CI builds, signs, notarizes (when secrets exist) and attaches the
