Ship a proper signed macOS .app bundle #2

Description

@prekabreki

The macOS release artifact (ColdRead-macos-arm64) is a PyInstaller one-file executable, not a .app. Consequences: double-clicking opens Terminal instead of launching as a GUI app, and it's unsigned/unnotarized so first launch hits Gatekeeper (right-click > Open workaround, documented in the README).

Follow-up: add a macOS BUNDLE target to ColdRead.spec to produce ColdRead.app, and add code-signing + notarization to the release workflow (needs an Apple Developer certificate).
