Decide how to distribute prebuilt/standalone executables

Now that the standalone builds are working in CI again, we need to decide how we want to distribute these executables when we release a new version. Possible answers: host on Box and link from the documentation, or possibly expose the files somehow on the Jdaviz Github or PyPi pages.

It would be great to include in the "assets" of a release on GitHub (see the 3.6.2 release entry, for example), but I'm not sure the best way to work that into the release procedures.

For end users, it probably makes more sense to link to the installers from https://jdaviz.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html

But you don't want to upload that to RTD, so maybe Box would work but hard to automate (might need ITSD to assign API key and so on and they might say no).
