feat(packaging): add a thin AppImage build
build-appimage.sh produces pixelpass-<version>-x86_64.AppImage via linuxdeploy. PixelPass links almost nothing (only libpipewire, which is excludelisted) and shells out to gst-launch-1.0/pactl/a player on the host PATH, while its GUI graphics libs are dlopen'd and also excludelisted — so the AppImage bundles just the binary, AppRun, desktop entry, and icon (~13 MB, zero bundled libs). The no-sandbox model lets the bundled binary spawn the host's tools, which is why AppImage fits this orchestrator better than Flatpak. AppRun opens --gui when launched with no args and no controlling terminal (file manager / .desktop), and passes through otherwise so the CLI, interactive menu, and viewer all work. README documents the host-deps contract + the glibc-baseline and VAAPI caveats. Verified: builds to 13 MB; --version/--help work; the GUI launches cleanly on a live Wayland session via both --gui and the no-tty AppRun path. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# PixelPass is an orchestrator: it shells out to gst-launch-1.0, pactl, and a
