// Apply performs an update of the current executable (or opts.TargetFile, if set) with the contents of the given io.Reader.
//
// Apply performs the following actions to ensure a safe cross-platform update:
//
// 1. If configured, applies the contents of the update io.Reader as a binary patch.
//
// 2. If configured, computes the checksum of the new executable and verifies it matches.
//
// 3. If configured, verifies the signature with a public key.
//
// 4. Creates a new file, /path/to/.target.new with the TargetMode with the contents of the updated file
//
// 5. Renames /path/to/target to /path/to/.target.old
//
// 6. Renames /path/to/.target.new to /path/to/target
//
// 7. If the final rename is successful, deletes /path/to/.target.old, returns no error. On Windows,
// the removal of /path/to/target.old always fails, so instead Apply hides the old file instead.
//
// 8. If the final rename fails, attempts to roll back by renaming /path/to/.target.old
// back to /path/to/target.
//
// If the roll back operation fails, the file system is left in an inconsistent state (betweet steps 5 and 6) where
// there is no new executable file and the old executable file could not be be moved to its original location. In this
// case you should notify the user of the bad news and ask them to recover manually. Applications can determine whether
// the rollback failed by calling RollbackError, see the documentation on that function for additional detail.
