Publish ahfail-bin, hosted on the tarballz index

A second AUR package with the same release prebuilt. The workflow
builds the tag into a staged meson install tree (--prefix=/usr, no
update check), names the tarball after its sha256 so a published name
never changes bytes, uploads it to asger.weirsoe.dk/tarballz with a key
that may only write ahfail-* tarballs, checks that the public URL serves
the same bytes, and only then pushes ahfail-bin to the AUR. A manual run
can now publish source, bin or both.

# Maintainer: Asger Geel Weirsoe <asger at weircon dot dk>
#
# DISCLAIMER
#
# ahfail is a joke with a real screen locker underneath. Two things to know
# before installing it:
#
# 1. Security. It sits in the authentication path of your session. It is
# provided as is, without any warranty (see the AGPL-3.0 license). On
# Wayland a crash leaves the session locked; on X11, as with i3lock, a
# killed locker leaves it open. /etc/pam.d/ahfail includes `login`, so
# the system's pam_faillock policy applies to wrong guesses.
#
# 2. Media. The sprite frames and the audio clip are a parody of the
# "ah ah ah, you didn't say the magic word" scene from Jurassic Park
# (1993). The film and its characters belong to their respective rights
# holders; they are used here non-commercially for parody, and the
# AGPL-3.0 license covers the code, not those assets. Rights holders who
# object can reach the maintainer at the address above and the assets
# will be replaced.
#
# PROVENANCE OF THE BINARY
#
# Built by the gtk-ahfail release workflow from the tagged source, in an
# archlinux:base-devel container, with --prefix=/usr and without the Gitea
# update check. The same recipe builds the source package `ahfail`.

==> ahfail is its own screen locker and uses its own PAM service (/etc/pam.d/ahfail).
Nothing in your other PAM files has been changed.
Check your setup: ahfail doctor
See the effect safely: ahfail test
Lock the screen: ahfail
Lock automatically:
Wayland: swayidle -w timeout 300 'ahfail' before-sleep 'ahfail'
X11: xss-lock -- ahfail
The old PAM hook (auth optional .../libahfail_pam.so in e.g. /etc/pam.d/i3lock)
