72de35a2a1 Switch back to Squirrel installer
which it turns out is by far the lesser of two evils.

 * Auto-update works with a proxy
 * The update process is reasonably atomic & faster, rather than
   running the uninstaller then the installer, leaving you with a
   broken install if you shut down your machine at the wrong time
 * Gets the update URL the same way as on mac, rather than baking
   it into the app at build time from package.json. We don't want
   it in package.json because only our builds want our update URL.

9f51e2c407 Auto-update & build process with NSIS for windows
Amalgamate the electron build packaging into one script.
Use update_base_url so we can compute the actual URL in the
script for windows (because we need to put it in the build) and
at runtime for mac os.

e3290c1117 Switch to new auto-update & add linux build
* Remove squirrel hooks (the installing & uninstalling is now
   done by the, er, installer)
 * Switch to electron-auto-update
 * Shorten initial update delay because we no longer need to wait
   for squirrel to release a lock file
 * Change update URLs because windows is now one installer for
   both 32 & 64 bit.
 * Update electron-builder to 10 where NSIS is now the default
   target for Windows.
 * Add linux to the target list, building a deb.
 * Remove sqirrel-specific installation spinner
 * Remove redundant !**/*  from files

5b7f629996 Build to the 'webapp' directory instead
People may have config files in vector/ so it would be nonideal
if we started overwriting them / blowing them away.

84aac88677 Make auto-update configureable
Otherwise everyone that builds electron vector will end up with
their apps auto-updatin to our version when we release an update.

Coming next: A way to manage our electron release process to make
sure we never ship a build with auto-update disabled.

to poll for updates or something.
