Electron Releases

Description of Change

Fixes a crash in the macOS Touch ID prompt for WebAuthn requests caused by IDS_WEBAUTHN_TOUCH_ID_PROMPT_REASON not being shipped in Electron's locale .pak files, and lets apps override the prompt text.

• Packs device/fido/strings into Electron's locale .pak files so IDS_WEBAUTHN_TOUCH_ID_PROMPT_REASON (default: verify your identity on $1) is present at runtime — previously the resource was never repacked, so the lookup failed when the Touch ID prompt was shown.
• Adds an optional touchID.promptReason to app.configureWebAuthn() which calls ResourceBundle::OverrideLocaleStringResource to replace the default. An optional $1 placeholder is substituted with the relying party ID; without it the string is used verbatim.
• Validation and side effects are ordered so an invalid promptReason doesn't leave the keychain group half-configured.

macOS renders the prompt as "<App Name>" is trying to <promptReason>.
