Description

Add electron build and package commands to the regular GH test pipeline to verify, that at bare minimum the application standalone is able to be build and packaged.
We also could consider adding explicit tests that act upon the electron environment directly to equalize testing coverage between npm web build and electron standalone.

Research direction

Start by locating the regular GitHub Actions test workflow and compare its existing npm web build checks with the Electron build and packaging commands. Confirm the available Electron entry points and package scripts before deciding how the standalone application should be verified. Done means the pipeline successfully builds and packages the standalone application; optional Electron-environment tests should be treated as a separate scope.
