Verified that the bundled Windows exes keep the executable bit:

  • On origin/master, vendor/snoreToast/snoretoast-x64.exe, snoretoast-x86.exe, vendor/notifu/notifu.exe and notifu64.exe are mode 100755 in git.
  • In a packed tarball (npm pack), all four are -rwxr-xr-x.

This was fixed in #458 and released in v11.0.0 (already in the changelog), so no new changelog entry.

Docs: replaces the "Windows and WSL2" advice to change permissions (and the link to #353) with a one-line note that the exes are executable since v11.0.0, plus chmod +x for when the package is copied without keeping permissions.

Fixes #400
