Closes #ISSUE

The installer, uninstaller, and the Zed binary files are all signed using Microsoft’s newly launched Trusted Signing service. For demonstration purposes, I have used my own account for the signing process.

For more information about Trusted Signing, you can refer to the following links:

• Microsoft Security Blog: Trusted Signing is in Public Preview
• Overview of Azure Trusted Signing

• Open with Zed in right click context menu (by using sparse package)
• Integrate with cli
  • Implement cli (windows: Implement cli and handle open_urls #25412)
  • Pack cli.exe into installer

• Implement dock menus
  • Add Recent Documents entries
  • Make zed.exe aware of sigle instance (windows: Implement cli and handle open_urls #25412)
  • Properly handle dock menu events
• Handle zed://*** uri

Materials needed:

• Icons
  • App icon for all channels (windows: display icon #9571)
  • Associated file icons, at minimum a default icon (example)
  • Logos for installer wizard
