Electron auto-update failure

autoUpdater.*error|Update.*check.*failed|ENOENT.*app-update\.yml

Fixes

1.Ensure app-update.yml is included in build output (electron-builder config)
2.Check that update server URL is accessible and returns valid release info
3.Code-sign the app — unsigned apps can't use auto-update on macOS
