This makes the AppImage 24 MiB, and this is a simple app it doesn't really need hardware acceleration.

Artifact to test

Made it to show @kem-a how small we can get these stuff.


@fiftydinar feel free to reject this PR for any reason, after all this is getting kinda ridiculous, the appimage is already very small anyway. (remember to squash if you merge btw)

It also launches faster.

Maybe do a benchmark

Yes, but only by about 100ms at best

It would be good to have 1 variable for this, like GTK_DISABLE_VULKAN_OPENGL=1 in quick-sharun or similar

GTK_DISABLE_GPU_ACCEL=1 might be a better name

tested working in ubuntu 14.04

It likely works in 10.04 as well, but I cannot get the vm to recognize my flash drive anymore so I cannot transfer the appimage lol, 14.04 is the oldest I have that has working internet.

Ok, but often times we need to remove mesa from the container, need to see if I can avoid this.
