An .msi that installs both apps to Program Files, adds them to PATH, and launches sys0 setup elevated so the service can be installed.

• [ ] WiX v4 project in packaging/windows/
• [ ] build on a Windows runner during release
• [ ] code-signing certificate (Authenticode) to avoid SmartScreen warnings
• [ ] uninstall removes the service (sys0 uninstall)
• [ ] MSIX variant for the Microsoft Store

Shipped unsigned in v0.2.0: sys1_0.2.0_windows_x64.msi and _arm64.msi (WiX 5, graphical installer with license page). It adds sys0/sys1 to the system PATH, adds Start menu entries ("Join a sys1 pool" opens the setup wizard, "sys1 node" opens the dashboard), and removes the sys0 service on uninstall. CI installs the x64 MSI, runs both apps, checks PATH and the shortcuts, then uninstalls and checks nothing is left. Until it's signed, SmartScreen asks "Run anyway".

Still needed to finish: a code-signing certificate (Authenticode) as a secret, then signtool on the binaries and the MSI. The Microsoft Store (MSIX) is still open.
