Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When installing Scorecard with tools like ubi, it becomes cumbersome to handle the current naming scheme (e.g., scorecard_5.0.0_darwin_arm64). Each platform has a distinct binary name, which complicates automation and tooling.

Describe the solution you'd like
Provide a single binary name across all platforms. For non-Windows, call the binary scorecard; for Windows, call it scorecard.exe. The release artifacts could remain named for each OS and architecture (e.g., scorecard_5.0.0_darwin_arm64.tar.gz) but once extracted, the binary inside would simply be scorecard (or scorecard.exe for Windows).

Describe alternatives you've considered
n/a

Previously, the binary name included the build platform which
complicated running Scorecard after extracting the tarball.

complicated running Scorecard after extracting the tarball. As all
binaries now share the same name, we need a unique folder for each
binary, so also removes `no_unique_dist_dir`.

While I mainly build from source as a maintainer, this has definitely bitten me before. It was an easy fix, so trying to get this in before the next release.

Previously binaries were created with their architecture and OS included as part of their binary name.

Removing the `binary: scorecard-<linux|darwin|windows>-{{ .Arch }}` line allows us to collapse all of the different build configs into a single universal build that caters for [linux,darwin,windos]*[arm64,amd64]

`- -buildmode=exe` was not needed on the windows builds and was also removed.
