chore(release): 8.2.0-sssf.3

Native only. Android SQLCipher 4.17.0 arrives in the base from the upstream
merge of capacitor-community#695. iOS is carried from capacitor-community#696, this fork's open follow-up, under the
amended native policy: SQLCipher pinned on both dependency managers, Swift
Package Manager as the built and verified path, the XCTest target compiling
again, the unused CocoaPods development workspace removed, and the plugin's
compiler warnings cleared.

+### 8.2.0-sssf.3 (2026-08-02)
+
+Native iOS and Android work. No web changes, and no API changes.
+
+Android arrives through upstream: [#695](https://github.com/capacitor-community/sqlite/pull/695) merged, so this release rebases onto a master that carries it. iOS is carried ahead of merge from [#696](https://github.com/capacitor-community/sqlite/pull/696), this fork's open follow-up, under the amended native policy in the README banner: native tracks upstream and may additionally carry only this fork's own upstream-pending pull requests, which retire on their own once merged.
+
+* **android:** `net.zetetic:sqlcipher-android` 4.10.0 to 4.17.0, a SQLite 3.53.3 baseline, via the upstream merge of #695
+* **ios:** SQLCipher is pinned on both dependency managers. Swift Package Manager takes `SQLCipher.swift` 4.17.0 exactly, matching Android; CocoaPods takes 4.10.0, which is the last version SQLCipher ever published to the trunk, since its 4.11.0 removed CocoaPods support outright
+* **ios:** Swift Package Manager is now the built and verified path. `verify:ios` builds the package, library and test target, for an iOS Simulator destination, and a second gate runs `pod lib lint` so the CocoaPods compatibility path cannot break unnoticed
+* **ios:** the XCTest target compiles again. It had never built under Swift Package Manager: it imported the Xcode workspace's module name, and its call to `CapacitorSQLite()` predated the `config:` parameter. Nothing built it, so nothing reported it
+* **ios:** the unused CocoaPods development workspace is removed (`ios/Podfile`, `ios/Plugin.xcodeproj`, `ios/Plugin.xcworkspace`); `pod lib lint` covers what building it covered, against the version consumers actually resolve
+* **ios:** five compiler warnings cleared in the plugin sources, each without behaviour change, so the podspec gate runs with no warnings allowed
+* **build:** SwiftLint no longer lints the Swift Package Manager checkouts under `.build`
