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

[Phyllis Smith]

Now you can try it and use it if you are lucky enough to have the
supporting hardware on a newer Intel system.

As far as I can tell, this appimage runs in the standard way on AMD /
Fedora version 40 as expected.  So probably it will run about anywhere -
just without the hardware encoding/decoding enhanced features (QSV and
oneVPL).  And being an appimage, it will run for several years as is.

Thanks again, Terje AND Andrew !!!

AND thanks to MatN who made it possible to keep providing binaries for the
users for the past 4 year via his scripts to create the appimages !!!
