Description

Summary of the new feature / enhancement

As an administrator that needs to be able to safely and securely distribute software to developers, I would like to request that all future macOS installation packages for PowerShell for macOS follow Apple standard guidelines for safely distributing software and begin notarizing and stapling all PKGs.

Many security and automation tools check for notarization (as well as macOS itself during a manual install) in order to ensure the integrity and safety of a package before its run.
