Promotes #239 so the site picks it up — CF Pages deploys site/** from main.

Adds a macOS — the menu bar app section to the Install docs (the site did not mention the app at all), leading with the single xattr -d com.apple.quarantine command that clears both Gatekeeper blocks, with the click-through path kept as the alternative. Also brings the advertised server version up to the released 0.12.9 and adds MAC_APP_VERSION for the download link.

The same text is now the release-notes template in release-mac.yml, and the published mac/v0.1.0 notes were updated in place to match.

A first user hit the Gatekeeper wall and tried right-click → Open, which
Apple removed in macOS 15 — so the block reads as "the download is
broken" rather than "click here". The instructions now lead with the
terminal escape hatch instead of the four-step settings walk.

The escape hatch is one command because of how the mark propagates,
which was measured rather than assumed: inside a quarantined image the
app carries no mark of its own, and gets one at the moment it is copied
out, inheriting the image's UUID. Clear it on the image first and the
copy comes out clean — both blocks gone, not just the first.

Applies the same text to the workflow's release-notes template, so the
next mac/v* release ships it too, and adds a macOS section to the site's
Install docs, which did not mention the app at all. Bumps the site's
server version to the released 0.12.9 (it still advertised 0.12.7) and
adds MAC_APP_VERSION for the download link.
