What happened?

cosmovisor production build should accurately report its version.

~# wget https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/releases/download/cosmovisor%2Fv1.7.1/cosmovisor-v1.7.1-linux-arm64.tar.gz
(...)
2025-02-28 05:09:09 (107 MB/s) - ‘cosmovisor-v1.7.1-linux-arm64.tar.gz’ saved [17759611/17759611]

~# tar -zxvf cosmovisor-v1.7.1-linux-arm64.tar.gz
~# mv cosmovisor /usr/local/bin
~# cosmovisor version
cosmovisor version: (devel)
