Update the macOS installer build to also create a distribution/product archive package, that contains the flat component package we were already building. The product archive allows us to do things like set welcome and conclusion messages, titles, and display a license (like the Windows installers do). In the new welcome and conclusion screens we include helpful links and instructions on how to uninstall GCM Core, and how to configure it for other users on the system. The macOS installer continues to install in a global location, but only configure the user's global Git configuration.
