Description
### Describe the problem
Currently the updater fails for `.app` files on macOS if the file is not located in the "applications" folder. The error that is thrown is:
`"Tauri API error: read-only filesystem error (os error 30)"`
There is no feedback to the end-user as to what is going on.
### Describe the solution you'd like
Tauri could listen to that error and prompt to the end-user that he needs to move the app into the applications folder in order to have the necesseary permissions to update the app.
