chore: release v0.25.3

Same bug as yesterday's, one screen further on. The QSL Info table maps the
statuses it knows — Y, R, I, M — and falls through to "No" for anything else.
ADIF's V is anything else. So a contact confirmed AND validated by LoTW was
reported as not received, in the one place an operator opens to check.

V now has its own label, Verified, in the green of a confirmation, and it is in
the dropdown too. That second half matters more than it looks: a select whose
value is not among its items renders blank, so a verified contact looked like
nothing had been recorded — and the operator's next click would have replaced
the strongest confirmation they hold with whatever they picked instead.

The QSL Manager's bulk list is deliberately left alone: it sets paper QSL
status across a selection and defaults to "leave", so it never displays a
stored value, and "verified" is not something a paper card can be.

+// internal/uls resolves a US callsign to a county through GeoNames' ZIP table.
+// The Census replaced Connecticut's eight counties with nine PLANNING REGIONS
+// as county-equivalents in 2022, and GeoNames followed: 418 of Connecticut's
+// 429 ZIPs now report "Capitol Region", "Lower Connecticut River Valley" and
+// so on. CQ's USA-CA award did not follow, callbooks did not follow, and no
+// operator's log did either — so every Connecticut station resolved to a name
+// nothing could match, showed as a new county for ever, and counted for no
+// award. Roughly 15 000 US callsigns.
+//
+// A planning region is NOT a renamed county — it is built from towns drawn
+// from several different counties — so there is no name-to-name mapping to be
+// had. The ZIP is the only handle, hence this table.
