This is an attempt to address issues people have been having with the gemspec file:
we wanted a way to make sure locally uncommited files didn't end up in a .gem file. Traditionally we used git ls-files for this, but this was causing issues in Debian packaging, where git is not installed (#232)
we wanted to avoid including the test files in the gem (#245)
The solution for now is to maintain an in-git list of files in FILES, and then there is a step in github actions to verify that the file is not missing anything present in git.
