Coming soon to #SpectrumOS — double click an AppImage, and it runs in a temporary VM, with no other setup required.Just need to tidy up the commits a bit…

Why AppImage — it's not a very relevant format, right?I chose AppImage because it's very simple — I don't have to figure out what parts of an OSTree store like I'd have to with Flatpak. As a result of how simple it is, I had to write almost no AppImage-specific code — the vast majority of the work was generic, like implementing support for creating VMs on the fly rather than requiring them to all be defined at boot. So this is also step 1 towards supporting other app formats!
