Subject: [PATCH] fix(ci): remove [skip ci] from version bump commits (#50)

* fix(ci): remove [skip ci] from version bump commits to allow PR checks

The [skip ci] flag was preventing PR checks from running on version bump PRs,
making it impossible to validate them before merge.

Changes:
- Remove [skip ci] from version bump commit message
- Update skip pattern to be more specific: '^chore: bump version to v'
- Rely on 3-layer loop prevention:
  1. Primary: PR label checking (version-bump, automated)
  2. Secondary: Commit title pattern matching
  3. Removed: [skip ci] flag (was blocking PR checks)

This allows PR checks to run while still preventing infinite loops through
label-based detection and commit title pattern matching.

* chore: trigger CI checks
