Adds workflow_dispatch inputs (dry_run, dist_tag) to the release workflow so a manual run can opt this branch into semantic-release's beta prerelease channel, mirroring appium-xcuitest-driver's beta pipeline. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Targets the recently released Appium 4 beta (4.0.0-beta.2). Bumps the appium peer dependency and lockstep @appium/* packages (support, oxc-config, semantic-release-config, tsconfig, types) to their Appium 4 beta releases, and updates driver code for the resulting API removals/changes. - @appium/types drops its `Location` interface (along with the legacy getGeoLocation/setGeoLocation JSONWP surface it backed); replaced with a local `GeoLocation` interface in lib/commands/types.ts - @appium/support is now published as pure ESM: its `tempDir`/`util` sub-namespaces (unlike `fs`, which stays a plain object) are real ES module namespace objects and can no longer be stubbed in place with sinon. test/unit/commands/file-actions.spec.ts now swaps `tempDir.path`/ `util.toInMemoryBase64` via node:test's `t.mock.module()` (the pattern already used elsewhere in this suite for ESM modules), re-importing file-actions.js fresh per test so it resolves the mocked module graph - AndroidDriver doesn't override driverData/createSession/reset/timeouts, so none of those Appium 3-to-4 BaseDriver removals needed driver-side changes BREAKING CHANGE: requires Appium >=4.0.0-beta.0 and drops Node 20 support (minimum is now ^22.22.2 || ^24.15.0 || >=26.0.0), matching Appium 4's own minimum supported Node engine.

… export
@appium/support's namespace object carries a `default` key alongside its
named exports; spreading it into t.mock.module()'s namedExports triggers a
Node 22 bug ("Unexpected token 'default'") when file-actions.js is
re-imported, fixed by Node 24.
