Update Mac OS certificates for electron builder

Mac access required!

Certificates

1. Use XCode to generate new certificates (Preferences/accounts/ManageCertificates... or do it from https://developer.apple.com/account/resources/certificates/list):

• Apple Development => Local Dev
• Apple Distribution => Distribute to store and dmg (?)
• (???) Mac Installer Distribution => Distribute to store

2. Import new certificates into keychain
3. Use mac "Keychain Access" app to generate all-certs.cer from all 4 certs and the 3 key private keys: Mac Installer Submission, Apple Distribution, Apple Development, 3rd Party Mac Developer Installer, Apple Distribution, Apple Development and Developer ID Application (maybe 2 of the certs and 1 of the keys is not needed) and remember to copy certs password to GitHub ENV. ALSO DON'T WORRY! YOU NEED TO ENTER YOUR PASSWORD ABOUT 7 TIMES. HINT: Select "My Certificates" from tab-bar to show what certificate belongs to which key.
4. base64 -i all-certs.p12 -o all-certs.txt
5. Update MAC_CERTS with value

Profiles

IMPORTANT NOTE: These must be created after the certificate step, since they include the certificates!

1. Go to https://developer.apple.com/account/resources/profiles/list
2. Create new "Mac App Store Connect" (store) and "Developer ID" (dmg) Profile
3. Download and move to tools/mac-profiles (HINT: take care that the IDE or editor does not mess up the white-spaces) and rename them to dl.provisionprofile and mas.provisionprofile.
4. Use base64 -i dl.provisionprofile -o dmg-profile.txt && base64 -i mas.provisionprofile -o MAS-profile.txt to get string for CI
5. Update DL_PROVISION_PROFILE and MAS_PROVISION_PROFILE
