Add external exec wrapper #232

Prevents external apps launched from Chataigne to use the AppImage libraries Fix for #231

Wrapper from https://invent.kde.org/brauch/appimage-exec-wrapper/, maybe we do need to add license/credit somewhere (I did in the AppRun)

[x] Added exec_wrapper.so, which replaces default system exec() functions in order to put the correct environment variables for the apps to use the system libraries instead of the AppImage ones
[x] Changed the AppRun binary to the script version (same functionality) in order to add custom environment variables for the exec_wrapper to work
[ ] Do the same modification for the ARM AppImages

Will this continue working in existing systems if they update their version of Chataigne ?
