The "dist" target invoked "hg archive" and has been broken since the migration to git. For the same reason ts/COMMITHASH ended up empty in every njs-types package published after the migration. The .hgignore and .hgtags files are stale as well.
Add .gitattributes with "export-ignore" attributes, so that agent instructions, CI configuration and the release machinery are not part of the tarballs created by "git archive", including the ones GitHub generates for a tag.

"make -f misc/GNUmakefile release" packages a tag into a njs-<version>.tar.gz tarball with a checksum file. The optional "release-check" target builds the extracted tarball.
