Switch to a framework-based approach for building support packages. #191

Following discussion on PEP730, official Python support for iOS will be adopting the use of a dynamic Framework build. This updates the build to produce dynamic framework builds.

As a beneficial side effect, we no longer need to build the macOS package - we can rebundle the official macOS build. This means that we can now provide Tkinter support out of the box.

Requires the use of updated briefcase templates:
