What
Adds in-place updates for the signed macOS desktop app. Cortext now checks published GitHub Releases, downloads a newer build when one is available, and asks the user to restart once it is ready. The app menu gets update controls too. After an app update, Cortext refreshes the bundled WordPress/Cortext files in the extracted site without touching the user's database or uploads.
Why
Desktop releases should not require a fresh DMG install every time. We also need the extracted WordPress site to pick up the app's bundled code without wiping local data.
