README: Confusing AppImage paragraph in Other Linux Distributions section #3635

Description

@Chealer

The Other Linux Distributions section of the README starts with:

Download the latest AppImage from GitHub Releases:

chmod +x CopyQ-*.AppImage
./CopyQ-*.AppImage

Normally, a sequence of steps following a colon constitutes an algorithm which performs the action preceding the column. However, the sequence in this case launches CopyQ rather than downloading it, so the paragraph is confusing.

While a list of all steps would be ideal, replacing the colon with a period could constitute a minimal fix.

By the way I am not sure this method should be listed first.

For one thing, it does not add copyq to PATH, making it impossible to follow documentation such as instructions in the README (see #3354).

Secondly, it does not add CopyQ to Kickoff (the "K menu").

Finally, it does not document how to uninstall.
