Description

GH provides actions that execute on specified platforms. We should use this to run graal native image builds of the CLI, and store each one as part of a 'release' here in github, so that anyone interested may download a fully functional CLI executable and create their own modules.

- [ ] Setup Github Action to build native images on Windows, Linux, and Mac
- [ ] Add Readme instructions on using the non-native image 'application' build product

Research direction

Start by reviewing the repository's build configuration and the module generator CLI's non-native application build product. Then inspect how GitHub Actions can target Windows, Linux, and macOS, and how this repository handles GitHub releases. Done means the three native binaries are built and stored in a release, with README instructions for using the application build.
