+- Build produced from commit 09c577ebd0fd.
+- Added `InfisicalSecret.GetPlainTextValue()` for direct plain-text access to secret material from PowerShell without needing `Marshal.SecureStringToBSTR`.
+- Added `-AsPlainText` switch to `ConvertTo-InfisicalSecretDictionary`; when present the cmdlet emits `Dictionary<string, string>` instead of the default `Dictionary<string, SecureString>`.
