Summary

Adds a Flathub manifest update checklist to the release process documentation, as requested by knst in #7183.

The new checklist covers updating the Flathub manifest (org.dash.dash-core.json) with download URLs, SHA256 hashes, and metainfo.xml source references for each new release, plus submitting a PR to flathub/org.dash.dash-core.

Validation

  • Markdown lint clean
  • Inserted in the correct location within the "After the release" section
  • Links to an example commit for reference

Add documentation for updating the Flathub manifest (flathub/org.dash.dash-core)
as part of the post-release checklist. This includes updating download URLs,
SHA256 hashes, and the metainfo.xml source reference for each new release.
