docs(release): bump to v4.3 with changelog and update metadata

paths-ignore for .github/** was preventing workflow-only pushes
from triggering the pipeline at all. Release job was gated to
push events only, so workflow_dispatch never published. Simplify
paths-ignore to just **.md and allow both push and dispatch to
trigger the release job.

+## 🔨 Building from Source
+
+The CI workflow builds on every push to `main`. You can also build locally or trigger a build from your own fork.
+
+**Prerequisites:** JDK 21, Android SDK/NDK 27, Rust stable with `aarch64-linux-android` target, `cargo-ndk`.
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/Enginex0/TEESimulator.git
+cd TEESimulator
+./gradlew zipRelease zipDebug
+```
+
+Output ZIPs land in `out/`. The Gradle build automatically invokes `cargo ndk` to cross-compile `libcertgen.so` before packaging.
+
+To rebuild from a fork, push to `main` or use **Actions → Build → Run workflow**. The workflow installs all toolchains (Java, Rust, cargo-ndk, ccache) and uploads Release + Debug ZIPs as artifacts.
+

 ## ⚙️ Configuration
 
 All configuration files live at `/data/adb/tricky_store/` and are monitored by `FileObserver` — changes take effect immediately without rebooting.

+## TEESimulator v4.3: Performance & Reliability
+
+- **Debug log gating** — `SystemLogger.debug()` now skipped entirely in release builds, eliminating unnecessary logcat syscalls on every intercepted transaction.
+- **Supervisor backoff** — Exponential restart delay (500ms → 30s cap) prevents CPU spin if the daemon crashes repeatedly. Resets automatically once stable.
+- **Process priority** — Daemon runs at nice=10, yielding CPU to foreground apps on constrained devices.
+- **Map eviction** — Rate limiter and file lock maps now evict stale entries instead of growing unbounded.
+- **CI pipeline** — Single-trigger build→release pipeline with proper changelog extraction and correctly sized artifacts.
