Prepare and submit any WordPress plugin to the wordpress.org plugin directory so it
passes the automated scan and manual review. Use when packaging a plugin for wp.org,
building a clean install zip, fixing review-team feedback (enqueue / nonces / sanitize /
prefixes), bumping versions across header+readme, or when the automated scan rejects an
upload (hidden files, generic prefixes, direct DB calls, etc.). Ships runnable scripts
that build a clean zip (no dev files, no dotfiles, vendor --no-dev) and run a pre-upload
preflight (hidden-file scan, version-sync, header/readme consistency, PHPCS).
