App name not updating in Applications Directory in macOS #84

Description

We are working on an update that includes a change to the application name on macOS. While the update itself installs successfully, the application name is not being updated in the Finder’s Applications directory or in the Dock.

From the Sparkle repository, we understand that updating both SUBundleName and the SPARKLE_NORMALIZE_INSTALLED_APPLICATION_NAME flag is required to handle app name changes correctly (reference). However, within our Flutter setup, we do not have a way to configure or set the SPARKLE_NORMALIZE_INSTALLED_APPLICATION_NAME flag.

Is there a recommended approach or workaround to enable this behavior when integrating Sparkle through a Flutter application?
