libdiscord-rpc.so is not included in the CI artifact

[BitiTiger]

When installing the plugin generated from GitHub CI, I get a warning about a missing libdiscord-rpc.so file. The file has to be fetched from the Discord RPC repo. This should be easy to script into the CI.

Error from Qt Creator:

/home/cait/.local/share/data/QtProject/qtcreator/plugins/12.0.2/lib/qtcreator/plugins/libCuteDiscordPresence.so: Cannot load library /home/cait/.local/share/data/QtProject/qtcreator/plugins/12.0.2/lib/qtcreator/plugins/libCuteDiscordPresence.so: (libdiscord-rpc.so: kan inte öppna delad objektfil: Filen eller katalogen finns inte)

I can confirm that grabbing the Linux build of Discord RPC from the releases page will fix this issue. Copying discord-rpc/linux-dynamic/lib/libdiscord-rpc.so from the release zip archive to ~/.local/share/data/QtProject/qtcreator/plugins/12.0.2/lib/qtcreator/plugins/libdiscord-rpc.so will solve the problem.

This file can be fetched by the CI script and added to the artifact at lib/qtcreator/plugins/libdiscord-rpc.so. Then it will be installed to the correct location and this plugin will finally work normally.
