Subject: 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!

+// with this we can very easily fetch the latest version of FlightCore
+// and redirect to it, without having to update any version numbers on
+// every release, simply change the search query to either "win-setup"
+// or "appimage", without a query you will be redirect to the release
+// page instead of the download
+//
+// so generally a request would look like this:
+// 
+//    r2northstartools.github.io/FlightCore/index.html?win-setup
+//
+// or
+//
+//    r2northstartools.github.io/FlightCore/index.html?appimage
+//
+// and to redirect to the release page:
+//
+//    r2northstartools.github.io/FlightCore/index.html
