The README’s “Current development builds” guidance pointed users to deprecated AppVeyor paths and did not clearly distinguish where to get artifacts for master vs development. This updates build documentation to the current GitHub Actions workflow views that expose downloadable artifacts for each branch context.

  • What changed

    • Removed outdated AppVeyor references from the README header/status area.
    • Updated build badge/linking to GitHub Actions for master.
    • Rewrote Current development builds to provide explicit links for:
      • latest successful master push builds
      • latest successful development PR-targeted builds
  • Resulting docs behavior

    • Users land on filtered workflow-run lists that map to the correct branch flow and can open runs to download artifacts from the Artifacts section.
    • Reduces ambiguity between stable (master) and in-flight (development) build outputs.
  • Snippet (updated README section)

    ## Current development builds
    
    Download the latest successful GitHub Actions build, then open the run and download the artifacts from the **Artifacts** section:
    
    * **Master branch builds**: https://github.com/cmderdev/cmder/actions/workflows/build.yml?query=event%3Apush+branch%3Amaster+is%3Asuccess
    * **Development branch builds**: https://github.com/cmderdev/cmder/actions/workflows/build.yml?query=event%3Apull_request+branch%3Adevelopment+is%3Asuccess
