fix: bump major version for breaking changes in release automation

jdx · claude · jdx · commit bc3395c9302e · 2026-03-13T15:15:19.000+01:00
git-cliff was not configured to bump the major version when commits
use the conventional commit `!` breaking change indicator (e.g.
`feat!:` or `feat!(scope):`). Add `[bump]` config with
`breaking_always_bump_major = true`.
