Put VSCode into toolbox container rather than package overlay #70

Closed apatel762 closed 2 years ago

It is the only thing that I am overlaying at the moment and the system would return to being 'clean' if I got rid of that (which will reduce the chances of things going wrong in the long run).

[x] Find a way of creating a .desktop file for stuff that lives inside of a container
[x] Find a way of ensuring that the .desktop files remain up-to-date

Very good docs here https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/desktop_entries

After some investigation; this is easy to do but difficult to fully automate without a complex helper script.

I'm going to steal https://github.com/A6GibKm/silverblue-tools and turn it into a Python package that I can install into the container and use from there.

[x] Create a desktop-maintain script to ensure that the desktop files are created?

Not sure how necessary a script like that would be, but would be nice to fully automate the setup of the .desktop entries.

Need to keep the script design in line with whatever I do on #71
