Cleanup
What changed, and why it matters
This commit removes a helper function used only in a screenshot-generation test script. The deleted code fetched the latest SeedSigner release version from GitHub and temporarily overwrote version data so screenshots would display consistent version information. It is a test-only cleanup with no effect on the actual SeedSigner application or its security.
No security action needed. Treat as routine test-maintenance cleanup.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The diff deletes reset_version_most_recent_release() and its call from tests/screenshot_generator/generator.py. This function called VersionUtils._fetch_latest_seedsigner_release_tag() to retrieve the latest release tag/timestamp from GitHub, then used Version.override_data() to set deterministic version fields for screenshot generation. Removing it stops the screenshot generator from making a network request to GitHub and from overriding version metadata. The change is confined to a non-production test utility.
