JDK-8237490 - [macos] Add support notarizing jpackage app-image and dmg
Description
JDK-8237490 is adding support to jpackage to sign app-image such that app-image or dmg file can be notarized.
Notarizing pkg files is a little different (mainly just requires a different certificate.)
This Enhancement is to insure pkg files generated by jpackage can be notarized.
Comments
I have confirmed that this works as is: With the proper certs installed, I can notarize a pkg installer generated by jpackage (from JDK-15). I have confirmed this works both with pkg that is built with one jpackage command, and with two a phase build (where an app-image is created by the first jpackage command, and then the pkg is built by second jpackage command using the --app-image option).
