refactor: Enable true dynamic SQLite linking and strip debug symbols

- Add -tags libsqlite3 build flag to use system SQLite
- Add -w -s linker flags to strip debug symbols and reduce binary size
- Update all build tasks (build, install, test, release)
- Update CI/CD workflows (artifacts.yml, ci.yml)

Benefits:
- Binary size reduced by ~33% (39MB → 26MB on macOS)
- Uses system SQLite library instead of bundled code
- Better compatibility with system SQLite tools
- Faster builds (no need to compile SQLite source)
- Security: system SQLite gets OS security updates

Requirements:
- libsqlite3 must be installed at runtime
- Already added to Dockerfile (sqlite-libs package)
