+by running the build backend in an isolated env, which is wasteful in CI).

+If they drift, the installers Briefcase builds carry a different version than the app reports, so a
+release can ship packages labelled with the previous version and Linux package managers refuse the
+upgrade. This test fails the build when that happens, so the two can never silently diverge again.
