fix: drop the hardcoded version field so tagged releases resolve correctly - #22

Composer trusts an explicit `version` field over the git tag it reads the package from. The v0.1.7 tag was cut manually on bb01a12 rather than through `composer release:patch`, so its composer.json still carried "0.1.6" — and Composer therefore resolved the tag as 0.1.6, leaving 0.1.7 uninstallable: $ composer show teofanis/hook-press --all # via VCS, bypassing Packagist versions : * 0.1.6, 0.1.5, ..., 0.1.0, dev-main Removing the field lets Composer and Packagist derive the version from the tag name, which is the documented recommendation and cannot drift. `packageBump` is disabled in .changelog so `composer release:*` no longer writes the field back on the next release; the changelog tool already reads the current version from git tags, not from composer.json.
