Build each platform on its own native runner

Splits the release workflow into linux, windows and macos jobs feeding a
single publish job. The publish step is separate so parallel builds cannot
race to create the release and fail on a duplicate tag.

Windows now builds natively, so signAndEditExecutable no longer has to be
disabled. That flag was suppressing rcedit, which is what embeds the icon
and version resources -- the v1.0.0 exe shipped with the stock Electron
icon as a result. Also adds an NSIS installer alongside the portable zip.

macOS gains a dmg target, which cannot be produced off macOS. Builds stay
unsigned pending a Developer ID, with CSC_IDENTITY_AUTO_DISCOVERY disabled
so electron-builder builds unsigned instead of failing on a real Mac.

Nothing cross-builds now; all three runners must be registered before
tagging, since a job with no matching runner queues silently.
