Per the semver workflow the version string only bumps at release
time, so the running dev work on the 2.4.3 line should stay listed
under 2.4.3 (not pre-create a 2.4.4 block). Merged the prior
'2.4.4' key's six dev entries into the top of '2.4.3', above the
existing "May 8, 2026 — 2.4.3 release" date marker, with a
"Unreleased — 2.4.3 patch work" date marker so the visual split
between unreleased + released entries is preserved.
`_getLatestWhatsNewVersion` resolves to the current build version
(2.4.3 in `_SOULSYNC_BASE_VERSION`); with the 2.4.4 key gone, the
helper modal now surfaces the dev work alongside the released
entries when the user opens "What's New", instead of being silently
hidden until a future build bump.
The release-time bump remains the canonical step that splits
"unreleased" entries off into their own version block — done as
the last commit on dev before merging dev → main.
No code changes — pure WHATS_NEW reorganisation.
