Subject: [PATCH] [ci] Stage WebView2 bootstrapper in test_windows_installer

client/installer.nsis:317 calls `File "MicrosoftEdgeWebview2Setup.exe"`
and client/netbird.wxs references the same payload. In the release
pipeline that file is generated by `wails3 generate webview2bootstrapper`
inside netbirdio/sign-pipelines; the netbird repo's test_windows_installer
job never ran that step, so makensis aborted with:

  Error in macro nb.webview2runtime on macroline 21
  Error in script "...\client\installer.nsis" on line 325

Mirror the sign-pipelines recipe: set up Go, install wails3 (version
derived from go.mod so the bootstrapper always matches the linked
runtime), then stage the bootstrapper into client/ before the makensis
step runs.
