Add AppImage build on linux

This consists of a meson option that
- sets a flag to make Aegisub read paths relative to the executable
- makes meson set up the symlinks like AppRun and .DirIcon as following
  the AppDir format

and a CI workflow that builds with this option, installs to an AppDir
directory, and bundles it as an AppImage.
