Ludovic Marie a248e9242a Ship the launcher as Horizon.app in a .dmg, and in Linux's menus ...

macOS: packaging/macos/package.sh (run by launcher.yml) builds Horizon.app (Info.plist, bundle
id dev.horizon.launcher, macOS 11+, the .icns), signs it ad hoc, and makes the two release
assets: horizon-launcher-macos-arm64.dmg, the installer (the app and an Applications link over
a background, laid out by dmgbuild without a GUI), and the .zip the launcher updates from. A
launcher inside the app replaces the whole bundle: copied beside it with ditto, swapped in by
renames, restarted; a bare binary, as older launchers are, still finds its binary in the zip.
A macOS test zips, unpacks, swaps and re-verifies a signed bundle. Signing for real is a
MACOS_SIGN_IDENTITY away (packaging/macos/README.md, with what Gatekeeper asks meanwhile).

Linux: release builds keep horizon-launcher.desktop (with the binary's current path),
horizon.desktop (hidden, for the game window's icon) and the hicolor icons under
$XDG_DATA_HOME, without root; `horizon-launcher desktop-entry --remove` takes them out and
stops it, `desktop-entry` puts them back.
