Add custom install script for GitHub Desktop (#39132)
This pull request updates the installation process for the GitHub
Desktop application on macOS. The main improvement is switching the
extraction method in the install script from `unzip` to `ditto` with the
`--noqtn` flag, which prevents the app bundle from being quarantined
after installation. This change is reflected in both the input
configuration and the generated output files.

**Install script improvements:**

- The install script for GitHub Desktop (`github-desktop-install.sh`)
now uses `ditto -xk --noqtn` instead of `unzip` to extract the
application, ensuring the app is not marked as quarantined by macOS
after installation.
- The script logic and structure have been slightly refactored for
clarity, but the core install and relaunch logic remains the same.

**Configuration and reference updates:**

- The `install_script_path` property was added to the Homebrew input
JSON for GitHub Desktop, pointing to the new install script.
- The output configuration (`darwin.json`) updates the install script
reference to the new version and includes the updated script content.
