build(fdroid): drop AGP dependency-metadata block; release v2.7.5
All checks were successful
CI / ci (pull_request) Successful in 5m57s

F-Droid's binary scanner (the fdroiddata `check apk` job) rejects any
"extra signing block". Our release APK carried AGP's dependency-metadata
block (id 0x504b4453, ~8 KB) in the APK Signing Block. Disable it with
`dependenciesInfo { includeInApk = false; includeInBundle = false }`.

The block lives in the signing block, not the zip entries, so removing it
changes no build output — v2.7.5 is functionally identical to 2.7.4 and
still reproduces byte-for-byte. Verified locally: a releaseTest build now
carries only the v2 signature + verity padding (no 0x504b4453 block).

This was the last F-Droid blocker: v2.7.5 now clears vcsInfo (since 2.7.3),
foojay (since 2.7.4) and the dependency-metadata block. Bumps versionName
to 2.7.5 and retargets the official recipe draft at v2.7.5.
