Improve security and reliability of macOS updates
This commit introduces several improvements to the macOS update process, primarily focusing on enhancing security and reliability: - Add data integrity checks to ensure downloaded updates haven't been tampered with. - Optimize update progress logging in `streamWithProgress` by limiting amount of logs during the download process. - Improve resource management by ensuring proper closure of file read/write streams. - Add retry logic with exponential back-off during file access to handle occassionally seen file system preparation delays on macOS. - Improve decision-making based on user responses. - Improve clarity and informativeness of log messages. - Update error dialogs for better user guidance when updates fail to download, unexpected errors occur or the installer can't be opened. - Add handling for unexpected errors during the update process. - Move to asynchronous functions for more efficient operation. - Move to scoped imports for better code clarity. - Update `Readable` stream type to a more modern variant in Node. - Refactor `ManualUpdater` for improved separation of concerns. - Document the secure update process, and log directory locations. - Rename files to more accurately reflect their purpose. - Add `.DS_Store` in `.gitignore` to avoid unintended files in commits.
