Summary

Update the Linux installation section in README.md to mention that OrcaSlicer is now available on Flathub.

Changes

  • add Flathub as the recommended Linux installation method
  • include the flatpak install command
  • mention that OrcaSlicer can also be installed through graphical software managers on many distributions when Flathub is enabled
  • keep the existing AppImage instructions as an alternative installation method

Why

Now that OrcaSlicer is available on Flathub, the README should reflect the easiest and most discoverable installation method for many Linux users.
