[Cin] New AppImage release with mostly only changes for Android/Termux builds

[mnieuw at zap.a2000.nl]

It took over 5 hours to get Debian11 32 bit running in graphical mode.
It was indeed a video problem with the AMD 2200G CPU. That lacks
functionality without loaded firmware, but the firmware (being
non-free) is not in the standard distribution.
Anyway, installing the firmware made it worse, possibly there is no 32
bit version??). When booting, it went dead very
quickly. Finally got it to work by modifying the kernel command line.
Originally it said ... vga=771 quiet, which froze the system.
Changing it to vga=normal nomodeset makes it work (I left out the
quiet).

So, the static build is going on now, when OK will do AppImage.
I am curious if I have to install extra software like Andrea did.

Then the mkv testing, but that will be tomorrow.
