Subject: [PATCH 2/3] feat: paste composer text without formatting (#4801)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Summary

- handle Cmd+Shift+V on macOS and Ctrl+Shift+V on Windows/Linux in the
message composer
- read plain text through the native Tauri/arboard clipboard path in
packaged builds, with a browser-only Clipboard API fallback
- re-enter ProseMirror's paste pipeline with populated `text/plain`
clipboard data so selection, undo, multiline behavior, and paste
observers remain intact
- cover both platform mappings with rendered composer E2E tests that
assert the native command path

## Testing

- `pnpm test` — 4,286 passed
- `pnpm check`
- `pnpm typecheck`
- `pnpm exec playwright test composer-selection-formatting.spec.ts
--project=smoke` — 26 passed
- `cargo check --manifest-path desktop/src-tauri/Cargo.toml --workspace
--all-targets --target aarch64-apple-darwin`
- `just desktop-tauri-test` — 2,206 core tests plus integration and
doc-test groups passed
- full pre-push hooks passed

## Manual verification

Physical packaged-app clipboard verification remains recommended on
macOS, Windows, and Linux. The automated E2E uses mocked Tauri IPC but
asserts the native `read_clipboard_text` command is invoked.

Subject: [PATCH 3/3] chore(release): release Buzz Desktop version 0.5.5
 (#4809)

## Buzz Desktop release v0.5.5

- **Frozen main:** `25a9cf1be6d245fbd7373cb1160dbc790baf5bd5`
- **Reviewed candidate:** `8380c1f8ead8816bcf1f4ea9f66aa08e2441b15a`
- **Previous desktop release:** `desktop-v0.5.4`
- **Proposed immutable tag:** `desktop-v0.5.5`

This PR must be **squash merged** only after the Desktop Release
Candidate check passes. The branch must remain based directly on current
`main`; stale base, payload drift, incomplete notes, or an unauthorized
merge produce no tag.

The checked-in changelog accounts for every non-merge commit in the
release range. Publication remains bound to the immutable candidate tag.
