[Cin] Testing Appimage with OneVPL and QSV presets on legacy Intel hardware

Sat Dec 7 22:10:00 CET 2024

I will find a drop site and email it, but it may not be until tomorrow.
The difference in size of the AppImage is due to the addition of the Online
Manual that Georgy incorporated 4 years ago.
It is definitely advantageous to have and easy to do but looks like I did
not put this in the Manual so I will write that up.
Basically before you produce your AppImage (after the build is finished),
you just copy all of the HTML files to bin/doc so that there are there when
you create the AppImage.  More later..
