Adding support for NSScreenCaptureUsageDescription

[obaid]

Adding support for NSScreenCaptureUsageDescription so that my app can capture system audio / screen recording if needed. This needs to be part of build file.

But this doesn't need to be a part of everyone's app...

Instead of making this something that's applied to every app, I'd prefer a mechanism here that allows the developer to choose which grants they're going to need

It could be something that goes in the NativePHP config file

@simonhamp Happy to help add that ability. If you have any pointers on how to go about it, that would be helpful.

@obaid I'm not sure exactly, but I'm thinking perhaps a config key in the config/nativephp.php such as mac_entitlements which contains an array of entitlements, e.g.

'mac_entitlements' => [
    'NSScreenCaptureUsageDescription' => "Application requests access to the user's screen capture and system audio",
]

Then there would need to be some logic in electron-builder.js to fetch the values from the PHP config (e.g. using an Artisan command) and merge them with some defaults (the ones already in the electron-builder.js)

Does this make sense?

Closing as it's outdated. Feel free to open a new PR with the relevant functionality as discussed if you've managed to make any progress there.
