Sign github release APKs #3

Description

@BlueDrink9

Currently, updating to an APK from the github releases is the only way to get the latest version of some of the ports. However, because they are unsigned (or so I believe), they clash with the Play Store release. This causes two problems:

  1. Updating via github requires uninstalling the Play Store version (losing your data in the process)
  2. Play Store sees its version as later, so will overwrite the unsigned APK from github if you accidentally update

My understanding is that signing the releases with the same key would allow updating without uninstalling, but that might be impossible if Play Store releases have a special signing process.
However, even signing with a different key should block play store from overwriting the installed version, so would still be worth doing.
