//! Elixir NIF precompiled binary packaging.
//!
//! Produces one tarball per (target × nif_version) combination in the format
//! expected by `RustlerPrecompiled`:
//!
//! `{lib}-v{version}-nif-{nif_version}-{target}.{ext}.tar.gz`
//!
//! where `{ext}` is `dll` (Windows) or `so` (everything else, including macOS).
//! Darwin uses `so` — not `dylib` — to match `rustler_precompiled 0.9.0`'s
//! `lib_name_with_ext/2` consumer-side URL construction, which hardcodes `so`
//! for every non-Windows target and cannot be overridden. No newer
//! `rustler_precompiled` version exists on Hex with `.dylib` support.
//!
//! Also provides `write_elixir_checksums()` to generate the
//! `checksum-Elixir.{App}.exs` file that RustlerPrecompiled validates.
