Closes #2692

Introduction

The first iteration of GoReleaser refactor where the TypeScript file (types-dnscontrol.d.ts) no longer needs to be generated manually, neither hardcoded is included in the source code. 🚀

How have these activities been tested?

1. GoReleaser configuration checked

   goreleaser check .goreleaser.yml

     • checking                                 path=.goreleaser.yml
     • 1 configuration file(s) validated
     • thanks for using goreleaser!
   

2. Started the GoReleaser build from the local machine.

   goreleaser build --snapshot --clean

     • starting build...
     • loading                                          path=.goreleaser.yml

3. Review the generated binary

   dist/build_darwin_all/dnscontrol version

   dnscontrol "4.7.3-next" ("5ad9d2baa128016fa070be71f221008f012e3dea") built 10 Dec 23 08:15 CET
   

4. Generate the TypeScript file.

   dist/build_darwin_all/dnscontrol write-types

   Successfully wrote types-dnscontrol.d.ts
   

5. Check the generated TypeScript file.

   grep "^//" types-dnscontrol.d.ts

   // This file was automatically generated by DNSControl. Do not edit it directly.
   // To update it, run `dnscontrol write-types`.
   // DNSControl version: "4.7.3-next" ("5ad9d2baa128016fa070be71f221008f012e3dea") built 10 Dec 23 08:15 CET
