SecureDrop Workstation release debrief

Kev/Mickael tested Allie's fix to SecureDrop Client DB migration and proceeded with release. All good, pushed new tags and released SecureDrop Workstation components.

Realized late that the cron job for the RPM was hourly. Based on limited comms, the update has worked well, with one person not seeing the 0.5.0 package until a reboot.
