Bug: Unsupported exe option used with gitlab backend

The exe=glab option is only supported by the ubi backend (in src/backend/ubi.rs), not by the gitlab backend which uses UnifiedGitBackend. The gitlab backend does not recognize or use the exe option, so this configuration will be silently ignored. If the intent is to specify the executable name, the gitlab backend supports rename_exe for archives or bin for single binaries instead. Additionally, the Windows configuration previously used matching_regex=^glab\.exe$ specifically to fix asset selection issues; removing this and switching to a backend without equivalent functionality may cause Windows installations to pick the wrong asset.

The Windows platform now uses the same backend configuration as Linux/macOS, but the previous configuration had a matching_regex=^glab\.exe$ parameter that was explicitly removed. Ensure that the native gitlab backend correctly handles Windows executable naming conventions (.exe extension) without this parameter, as the removal could affect Windows compatibility.
