docs: Redirector to up-to-date releases (#151)
* Add GitHub pages download redirector
Very simply put, this fetches the current release, and translates search
queries like `?appimage` into the download URL for the most recent
.AppImage file, then redirects you to it, effectively downloading it.
* Update download link to use redirector
Now the link doesn't have to be updated every time there's a release!
