Provide precompiled binaries for OSX at minimum (or for other platforms too) #343

Shipping actual binaries would be very useful for users who just need to get a working copy of the 64 bit Intel/Apple Silicon OSX binaries to get their purchased games working again, without having to install all sorts of OSS toolchains to fully compile it from scratch (which could take a fair amount of time depending on how old their hardware is).

Actually achieving this would be as simple as just uploading artifacts via GitHub Actions, for reference, so very little dev effort is required (as such I don't get why this hasn't been done already for Intel OSX at least, ARM64 OSX doesn't have GH actions setup though but I imagine posting a GH release manually instead also works).
