Issue
Update macOS application to use a newer Python (3.6) and Qt (5.8)
Description of changes
Replace the old build scripts. There is no prebuild bundle template anymore. The python framework is downloaded/extracted from the official python.org macOS pkg installers, laid out into the .app directory and made relocatable (using install_name_tool to change .dylib' library load paths relative).
All other dependencies are then installed using pip/wheel
However with Python 3.6 we are now responsible for distributing a ssl certificate store.
