Description

- Would there benefit in optionally verifying the hash or signature of the rcodesign binary? Right now there is no such check:
https://github.com/indygreg/apple-code-sign-action/blob/main/src/main.js#L51. I'm not sure if you sign the binaries right now or if you'd be willing to though.

- And if you think there would be benefit, would you take a pull request for to implement this optional feature?

Thanks!

Research direction

Start at the rcodesign binary handling in src/main.js around line 51. Determine whether the distributed binaries have a verifiable signature or hash and clarify the optional verification inputs and failure behavior. Done requires an agreed verification design and coverage for enabled and disabled verification.
