Simplify artifact packaging and update release notes

This commit simplifies the artifact packaging process by creating a single tar.gz file containing all binaries for each platform, instead of individual files. It also updates the release notes to reflect the new packaging approach and corrects the documentation to use the new naming convention 'obitools4' instead of '<tool>'.
