Build the app before running the prep-release script

[yuliyan]

Changes proposed in this Pull Request:

The update-translations command of the prep-release script will scan the directory for translatable strings, including the build directory, which can either be outdated or not existing at all, resulting in excluding strings from the generated POT file.

This PR updates the npm run prepare-release script to add npm run build prior to executing the prep-release.js script to ensure the build directory is up to date when scanning for translatable strings.

• This PR is a very minor change/addition and does not require testing instructions (if checked you can ignore/remove the next section).

How to test the changes in this Pull Request:

1. Code review.

Other information:

• Have you added an explanation of what your changes do and why you'd like us to include them?
• Have you written new tests for your changes, as applicable?

FOR PR REVIEWER ONLY:

• I have reviewed that everything is sanitized/escaped appropriately for any SQL or XSS injection possibilities. I made sure Linting is not ignored or disabled.

Does this mean that we have to remove the node modules directory, so that it isn't packaged up in the release afterwards?

The node_modules directory is removed when building the app in the create-release script.

I simulated a pre-release by bumping the version and updating the changelog, but exited the process before creating the pull request.

It seems that the Git commands in these scripts are adding files that were not initially tracked, or were even marked to be ignored in the .gitignore file.

Other than that, LGTM!

@markbiek, since you've worked on the script before, could you confirm if it's ok to build the app before running the prep-release.js script?
