fix(release): serial shared-deps build, macOS strchrnul fallback, copy all Windows DLLs

Three independent pg-tools step failures on the 5th release run:

- Linux: 'ar: libpgcommon_srv.a: file format not recognized' — parallel
  `make -C` tool builds race each other's recursion into src/common
  (rm -f / ar crs on the same archive). Pre-build generated-headers +
  libpq (which pulls in common/port) serially so the -j tool builds find
  the archives up to date.
- macOS x86_64: strchrnul marked 'introduced in macOS 15.4' by Xcode 16.4
  fails -Werror=unguarded-availability-new and would crash at runtime on
  macOS < 15.4. Force ac_cv_func_strchrnul=no and rename PG16's inline
  fallback (pg_strchrnul) so it compiles on any SDK without touching the
  system symbol.
- Windows: EDB pg_dump.exe needs libcrypto/libssl/libiconv/libintl/
  libwinpthread/liblz4/libzstd/ICU DLLs; copy every bin/*.dll, not just
  libpq.dll.

All three verified locally (macOS: full build + tools run from resource
dir; YAML + bash -n for all platform variants).

+### Releases
+
+Cut a release from the **`prod`** branch (never feature branches) by tagging it — `git tag vN.M.N && git push origin vN.M.N`. GitHub Actions (`release.yml`) builds installers for macOS (Apple Silicon + Intel), Windows, and Linux and opens a **draft** release (review + publish on GitHub).
+
+**Before tagging**, keep everything in sync:
+- Version number across `package.json`, `src-tauri/Cargo.toml`, and `src-tauri/tauri.conf.json`
+- `src/lib/version.test.ts` and `src/lib/docs-coverage.test.ts` if they assert the version
+- **README download links stay version-free** — both download tables (top **Download** section + **Which file should I download?**) link via GitHub's `releases/latest/download/<file>` redirect, which only works because `release.yml` sets `releaseAssetNamePattern` to a version-free pattern (`[name]_[platform]_[arch][setup][ext]`). Do NOT re-add the version to these filenames on release.
+- **Bundled pg tools:** `tauri.conf.json` `bundle.resources` lists `resources/pg_tools/*`; the `release.yml` matrix builds/downloads + checksum-verifies the static binaries before the Tauri build step.

-
-- **Schema CRUD** — create/rename/drop schemas from the object tree
-- **Global object search** — Cmd+K-style search across tables, functions, triggers, sequences, and extensions by name
-- **Copy as DDL for any object** — `CREATE FUNCTION` / `CREATE TRIGGER` / … via the same DDL-generation used for edit/drop previews (also covers the "Table structure export" queue item)
-- **Object dependencies** — `pg_depend`-based "what depends on this object?" view, shown before drops so nothing breaks silently
-
 ### Admin follow-up (after object management)
 
 - **PostgreSQL users/roles + grants management** — create roles and set privileges from a UI (DB Pro has this at 0% on their roadmap — a differentiator to hold)
 - **Maintenance actions** — right-click table → VACUUM / ANALYZE / REINDEX
 
+### Connection & credentials
+
+- **Wire up the "Enable Keychain" toggle** — currently a form-only placeholder: the flag is submitted and stored with the connection record, but the Rust backend never reads it and the frontend store unconditionally calls `saveConnectionPassword`. Decide the intended behavior (e.g. off = store the password with the connection record / don't persist at all, on = OS keychain as today) and implement the conditional path + migration for existing records.
+
+### DB viewer: ⌘K object search (0.7.6)
+
+- **Fix: clicking a search result does nothing** — reported from 0.7.5 testing. `ObjectSearchPalette.handleSelect` sets store state but the UI doesn't react:
+  - *Non-table results* (function/enum/sequence/…) set `selectedObjectType` but **never switch the view to the Objects page** — the palette needs to also call the view switch (e.g. `setCurrentView("objects")` or the DbViewerScreen equivalent) so `ObjectExplorerPage` mounts and consumes `selectedObjectType`.
+  - *Table/view results* call `openTab(schema, name)` but nothing visibly happens from the Explorer — verify `openTab` reaches the tab system from the palette's context (tab store + active-view wiring) and opens the tab.
+  - Add component tests that render the palette inside DbViewerScreen (or a harness) and assert the view/tab actually changes on click.
+- **Add arrow-key navigation + Enter to pick** — currently mouse-click only. Move the highlighted row with ↑/↓ (wrapping), Enter selects the highlighted hit (same `handleSelect` path), Esc still closes. Optional: home/end + typeahead on the result list.
