Integrates code signing with a key stored in digicert one to app build workflows. There are a couple caveats: - You can do this locally if you have a windows machine and if you have the right accounts and permissions. Read: you basically can't do this locally - Digicert for some reason charges per signature. We sign a lot of stuff. Therefore, we are only going to produce signed windows builds for releases and if a dev really needs to by pushing a branch that has "as-release" in it (in the same way we only do app builds if you push a branch that has app-build in it - so building and signing both windows apps would require a branch that has app-build-both-as-release in it) - This just doesn't work at all with electron-builder, and they don't seem to want to change things to fix it; specifically, you can only configure e-b to pass along a key link and a password, and you basically can't do that anymore. So we have to have a (thankfully simple) custom sign script. Closes RDEVOPS-128 ## to leave draft - [x] this produces a signed installer that passes smartscreen - [x] this only does that on branches with the right kinds of names
