Enable signed Windows builds and in-app auto-updates #588

Description

@parsakhaz

Problem

Pane's macOS build supports the expected update flow, but Windows users still need to download and install each new version manually because Windows signing is not in place.

A long-time user identified this as the most frustrating part of keeping up with Pane's frequent releases.

Desired outcome

  • Ship signed Windows release artifacts.
  • Enable a reliable in-app update flow on Windows.
  • Preserve the existing installation and user configuration during updates.
  • Surface actionable errors if update verification or installation fails.
  • Document any one-time migration required for users moving from unsigned to signed builds.
