Henry Fraser 087aad3dcd ci: improved cpack packaging 
Addresses: #12571

- Added the following installers through CMake files:
    - Windows NSIS.
    - Windows MSI.
    - Windows zip.
    - MacOs tarball.
    - Linux tarball.
    - Linux Deb package.
- Tweaked pipeline CPack commands to build using new CMakeLists.txt configuration file.
- Added icons and relevant packaging files.
- Updated notes.md to reflect new installation instructions.

This isn't meant to be the perfect solution, it's simply a first pass at using a
simple packaging system to build Windows installers. A Debian package has also
been added since it's very easy but other packages have been left out due to
limiting the scope. Hopefully we can build further upon this and improve it
over time with code signing, better icons and more user-friendly installation
graphics and so on.
