Auto-detect crates.io builds via .cargo_vcs_info.json and default to prebuilt mode (BOXLITE_DEPS_STUB=2), so `cargo add boxlite` works without Go, LLVM, or vendored submodules. Changes: - Add auto_detect_registry() to all build.rs files (boxlite + 4 -sys crates) - Add version specs to path dependencies in boxlite/Cargo.toml - Sync -sys crate metadata (version.workspace, repository, exclude vendor) - Add bubblewrap-sys to workspace members - Set publish = false for non-publishable crates (SDKs, CLI, guest) - Add docs.rs metadata to boxlite-shared
