Description
Describe the bug
xplane_plugin.zip (21.6 MiB) and src.zip (10 KiB) are tracked at the repository root and duplicate directories that already exist in the tree. They appear to be accidental commits of macOS-created archives.
Every clone downloads the 21.6 MiB archive, and a newcomer cannot tell which copy is authoritative.
Expected behavior
Both are removed from tracking and added to .gitignore.
Additional context
Deleting them does not reclaim history size without a rewrite, which is not worth doing. Removing them from the working tree is enough.
Found while writing the setup documentation in #138 / #178.
