[client] Fix - Add RPM metadata required for Red Hat software certification - #7562
Conversation
The RPM ships only /usr/bin/netbird, with no Requires, no changelog and no config or doc files, which fails three subtests of the RHEL 9 software certification RPM test. Declare the runtime dependencies, generate the changelog from git tags with chglog at release time, and ship LICENSE, README.md and an example /etc/sysconfig/netbird as %license, %doc and %config(noreplace). The unit generated by "netbird service install" already reads that path via EnvironmentFile, so post_install.sh is unchanged.
