Create a flatpak for Timeshift #129

To have consistency across distros it would be nice to have a flatpak that could be downloaded from flathub.org.

This could potentially reduce the amount of bugs reported due to inconsistencies across user computers.

I also appreciate the sandboxing that Flatseal provides for Flatpaks as added security. This would require setting certain flags that are required to have Timeshift run at a minimum (like being able to access root/home to be able to backups).

Do we have any news about this ?
