fix(homebrew): rename the geode formula to geode-relay to clear the name collision

`geode` can never be a homebrew-core formula: `formula_renames.json` maps
"geode" -> "apache-geode", so the token is permanently reserved and
`brew info --formula geode` resolves to Apache Geode. The previous commit
recorded that as a blocker; this removes it.

- `geode/packaging/homebrew/geode.rb` -> `geode-relay.rb`, `class Geode` ->
  `class GeodeRelay` (Homebrew requires the class to track the filename).
- `bump-homebrew-geode-formula.yml` follows the path, and the three sibling
  workflows' header comments now name the formula correctly.
- `geode/README.md` points at the new file and the new tap install line.

**The binary is still `geode`.** Users type `geode`, not `geode-relay`. That is
safe rather than sloppy: apache-geode installs `gfsh`, so nothing collides on
PATH. Formula token and binary name differ deliberately, which the header now
states so nobody "fixes" it later.

Verified: `brew style` clean on the renamed file (it validates class-vs-filename
agreement, so this catches a bad rename), `brew info --formula geode-relay`
resolves to this relay rather than Apache Geode, `ruby -c` passes, and replaying
the bump workflow's `sed` still changes exactly the two intended lines.

`geode/plans/2026-07-24-geode-release.md` is left alone — a dated design doc,
not live configuration.
