These are electron required dependencies: https://www.electron.build/app-builder-lib.interface.deboptions#depends

Can you add them as comments to the file? Ugh, it's JSON...

Right, JSON is bad. How about adding the field No, electron will complain about unknown fields."_depends_comment": "there are electron required deps"?

Can we support arm as well?

We can, we also need to update Go compiler arguments for tun2socks. (And I don't have a ARM based machine to test) Could we add this later?
Adds support for generating a Debian package (.deb) for Linux Outline Client.
This allows users to install Outline Client via
sudo apt install Outline-Client.deb. The package installs the client to/opt/Outline, it also creates a launch shortcut.Uninstalling the package with
sudo apt remove/purge outline-clientremoves everything.This PR adds two "name"s as well:
"extraMetadata"."name": Sets the apt package name (visible viaapt list | grep outline-client)."linux"."executableName": Sets the executable file name in/opt/Outline/. The first letter is capitalized ("Outline") to avoid icon conflicts with Ubuntu's default "outline" icon in launch shortcut.TODO
