Low Risk
Low risk: this PR only updates package versions and changelog/release links, with no runtime code changes.

Overview
Cuts a new release by bumping the monorepo version to 26.0.0 and @metamask/smart-accounts-kit to 1.3.0.

Updates both CHANGELOG.md files to add the new release entries and adjust the Unreleased comparison links (including noting the new redeemer rule feature in the @metamask/smart-accounts-kit changelog).
