The Early Access AppImage needs to be accessible through liftinstall, so
a couple modifications need to made:
The DIR_NAME needs to not include the revision info.
The EA AppImage name cannot contain revision info.
The EA AppImage has to be packaged with the rest of the yuzu package,
which means both binaries and the source are bundled with it now in an
archive.
In addition, fix the source archive so yuzu can actually be built from
it.
upload: Copy AppImage to both mainline and EA release package
[REUSE] is a specification that aims at making file copyright
information consistent, so that it can be both human and machine
readable. It basically requires that all files have a header containing
copyright and licensing information. When this isn't possible, like
when dealing with binary assets, generated files or embedded third-party
dependencies, it is permitted to insert copyright information in the
`.reuse/dep5` file.
Oh, and it also requires that all the licenses used in the project are
present in the `LICENSES` folder, that's why the diff is so huge.
This can be done automatically with `reuse download --all`.
The `reuse` tool also contains a handy subcommand that analyzes the
project and tells whether or not the project is (still) compliant,
`reuse lint`.
Following REUSE has a few advantages over the current approach:
- Copyright information is easy to access for users / downstream
- Files like `dist/license.md` do not need to exist anymore, as
`.reuse/dep5` is used instead
- `reuse lint` makes it easy to ensure that copyright information of
files like binary assets / images is always accurate and up to date
To add copyright information of files that didn't have it I looked up
who committed what and when, for each file. As yuzu contributors do not
have to sign a CLA or similar I couldn't assume that copyright ownership
was of the "yuzu Emulator Project", so I used the name and/or email of
the commit author instead.

A regression was introduced on May 13 by linuxdeploy that causes file
open dialogs to crash yuzu in the AppImage (likely this commit
1e28ee38fa from
linuxdeploy/linuxdeploy-desktopfile). Instead of downloading the latest
version from each of the repos we use to build the AppImage, just
download the ones hosted at yuzu-emu/ext-linux-bin, which are the same
binaries we have been using, but verified to be working and won't update
on us beyond our control.
This can eventually be moved into the container itself to remove the
need to download them at build time.
Moves the final step for building the AppImage to the upload script.
Instructs appimagetool to embed update information into the AppImage if
the release target is Mainline. Also tells it to create a zsync file to
enable partial-downloads when updating the AppImage.
Also renames the AppImage from `yuzu-{version info}-x86_64.AppImage` to
`yuzu-{version info}.AppImage` to avoid a bug in the downloads page at
yuzu-emu.org/downloads.
This builds yuzu in an AppImage alongside the other archives during
release. Required to allow distributing yuzu in the future with upgraded
dependencies, such as Qt.
