Make the "Open in Cura" button on Thingiverse work by informing
the system that Cura is the application to handle URLs with the
cura scheme, and that it can handle URLs, not just local files.
This fixes this error message visible in Firefox' console when clicking
the button on the website:
Prevented navigation to “cura://open?file=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thingiverse.com%2Fdownload%3A14134689” due to an unknown protocol.

CURA-12054
It is now a fact that Cura doesn't work properly with native Qt/Wayland integration. However, on recent Ubuntu versions Wayland is now used by default. So we now force using the xcb platform unless otherwise specified, which should have no impact on older platforms but work better on new ones.
The changes include adding several packages to the list of dependencies for the AppImage-builder, such as libgtk,
librsvg2, imagemagick and icon themes. Furthermore, adjustments were made to the runtime environment variables
(GDK_PIXBUF_MODULEDIR and GDK_PIXBUF_MODULE_FILE). Excluded file paths were also updated to exclude unnecessary
documentation files.

This update removes various icon-theme exclusions from the AppImage build configuration and includes specific hicolor
icon files. It also adds new environment variables and path mappings for handling user data more efficiently within the
AppImage. This aims to optimize the packing process and improve the resultant AppImage's compatibility and performance.
Contributes to CURA-11132
Added the configuration file `AppImageBuilder.yml.jinja`, the Python script `create_appimage.py`, and the shell script
`entrypoint.sh.jinja` for AppImage building and packaging. These additions would enable the Cura application to be built
into a single, standalone, executables file for Linux users, improving software deployment and distribution.
