Adds a manually-triggered (workflow_dispatch) gate that verifies a draft or published release meets all publishing requirements before it is made public: - Windows .exe (agent + launcher) and .msi installers are Authenticode-signed with a valid signature and an RFC3161 timestamp. - The macOS darwin binary is codesigned (Step Security Developer ID + hardened runtime) and notarized (Gatekeeper accepted / Notarized Developer ID). - Every relevant distributable binary has a corresponding signed checksum (<artifact>.sha256.sig) that verifies against the release operator's Ed25519 public key and matches the artifact's actual SHA-256, mirroring the loader's verification scheme exactly. A final gate job fails the run unless all checks pass. Accepts a tag and an optional repository input so it can be pointed at an upstream published release to confirm the workflow itself works.
