v7.6.0

What's Changed

Added Forge preStart hook

Electron Forge v7.6.0 adds a new preStart hook that improves Forge's starting logic, specifically allowing multiple plugins to customize their start logic, rather than just one. This addition fixes an issue where a project containing multiple plugins that hooked into the app's start would collide.

Allow omittingACL from publisher-s3 plugin upload

v7.6.0 also allows users of the publisher-s3 plugin to omit the ACL from the upload request, per Amazon's recommendation of using bucket owner-enforced permissions.
