build: the exe is LlamaCasty.exe, and the publish script proves the artifact

Browse Source 
Renames AssemblyName to LlamaCasty before the first Steam depot — Steamworks is explicit
that renaming a live exe is painful, so this had to land first, not later.

Four assembly-qualified pack URIs carried the old name, not three: MainWindow (window
icon), OverlayHost (logo), RenameRecordingDialog and KeepBroadcastDialog. Pack URIs
resolve by assembly name at runtime, so a stale one compiles, passes every test and then
silently renders nothing the first time that view opens. AssemblyIdentityTests guards
both halves — the assembly name, and no source XAML still naming the legacy assembly.
Packaging/Package.appxmanifest and package-msix.sh carry the exe name too.

scripts/publish.sh replaces the by-hand publish: single-file win-x64, ReadyToRun,
ffmpeg beside the exe, and it refuses to finish if ffmpeg, LICENSE, PRIVACY.md or
THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES.txt are missing, or if a test assembly leaked in.

That last guard exists because the first publish was wrong in a way no test could see:
PublishSingleFile + IncludeNativeLibrariesForSelfExtract bundled the libav*.dll family
into the exe — a 9-file output with no ffmpeg folder and a 182 MB binary, so the locator
would have found nothing at runtime. ExcludeFromSingleFile="true" on the content keeps
the folder a folder. Diffing against a control publish without the single-file flags
found it; guessing at item globs wasted two attempts first (recorded in MyMistakes.md).

Measured: 127 MB exe + 129 MB ffmpeg = 257 MB depot. Tests: AssemblyIdentity,
StorePackaging, BuildStamp, BundledFonts all pass; app builds with 0 warnings.

**Consequences, so nobody re-hunts them:**
- Renaming `<AssemblyName>` to `LlamaCasty` is the cheap win (the customer-visible exe
name matches what `Distribution.md` already promises; namespaces can stay `ytLive.*`).
It is **4 lines**, but it hard-breaks three pack URIs that spell the assembly name:
`MainWindow.xaml:14` (the **window icon** — taskbar/Alt-Tab), `OverlayHost.xaml:96`,
`RenameRecordingDialog.xaml:5`. Miss those and you ship a broken icon. Queued in TASKS.md
under the shipping task, not done.
- The assembly rename landed 2026-11-01 (before the first Steam depot, because Steamworks warns
that renaming a live exe is painful). Namespaces stay `ytLive.*` — they are not user-visible
and renaming them would churn every file for nothing.
- An assembly-qualified pack URI spells the assembly name, so the rename **hard-breaks silently**
at runtime, not at compile time. Four carried it, not three:
`MainWindow.xaml:14` (window icon — taskbar/Alt-Tab), `OverlayHost.xaml:96`,
`RenameRecordingDialog.xaml:5`, and `KeepBroadcastDialog.xaml:5`.
`ytLive.Tests/AssemblyIdentityTests.cs` now guards both halves: the assembly name is
`LlamaCasty` and no source XAML still names the legacy assembly.
- `Packaging/Package.appxmanifest` (`Executable`) and `scripts/package-msix.sh` carry the exe
name too; the MSIX is unused but must not lie about the artifact.
- Renaming the `%APPDATA%\ytLlive` folder is **breaking** — it would orphan every existing
user's layout DB, `Assets` and settings. Never do it casually; needs a migration.
- No code compares its own assembly name (no `GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().Name` checks),
