Create signed MacOS app builds

[jsiefers]

In the readme there is this section with instructions on installing the desktop app on MacOS. This does not work when the mac is enrolled in certain device management tools.
At my company, it is not allowed to bypass the warnings by using that 'Open anyway' button and we just get the same 'could not verify Flocon' dialog with the 2 buttons.

It is possible to bypass it with a terminal command, but this has to be done for every version and is not very user-friendly.

Therefore (and for other security reasons) it would be good to sign the MacOS app.

it costs 100€ per year to do this, I'm thinking about opening a tipee or something like this to get this amount as it's an open source project 😄

question @jsiefers , is it the same for a .jar ?

@florent37 I'm not sure, but since jars run in a 'sandboxed' environment, I can imagine that that would work.
