Build the game as a standalone Windows .exe (PyInstaller) #16

Description

@martymcenroe

Bundle the open-source calibration game (tkinter, pure stdlib) from src/silphe/ into a standalone Windows .exe — the prerequisite for every non-PyPI lane (direct download, winget, Microsoft Store).

Notes

  • PyInstaller one-file build of silphe.calibrate:main (and maybe silphe.arc:main), bundling tkinter.
  • App icon, one-file vs one-dir, smoke-test on a clean Windows box (no Python installed).
  • Output feeds GitHub Releases / the thrivetech download.
  • Must be code-signed (see the cert issue) or Windows SmartScreen scares regular users.

Sibling lanes: thrivetech download, winget (#TBD), Microsoft Store (#15), PyPI (silphe-play).
