Feature: Add standalone downloadable app to releases #73

Allow users to easily download the application and put it on their desktop or whatever.

A standalone electron-ified version of bookbinder and maybe some automation for releases could accomplish this. https://dev.to/ruppysuppy/turn-your-website-into-a-cross-platform-desktop-app-with-less-than-15-lines-of-code-with-electron-44m3

Hilariously the very first draft of this was an electron app before I decided that crosscompiling was too much of a pain and everything worked as a web app, lol. But now that you can't just save the files and open them offline (because CORS), I'm open to a standalone version too, as long as it doesn't impact the existing web version.
