Pull request overview
Adds a new macOS distribution path for Azure CLI that packages the CLI as a Python-site-packages tarball (no bundled Python), supports both Homebrew Cask and offline installs, and wires up an Azure Pipelines flow to build → sign/notarize → test.
Changes:
- Introduces macOS packaging assets: tarball builder, cask generator, launcher script, and offline README template.
- Adds Azure Pipelines templates/jobs for macOS build, ESRP signing/notarization, cask generation/testing, and publishing.
- Updates pipeline variables and repo
.gitignoreto support the new workflow.
