Avoid using git LFS for image #5

While git LFS is pretty nifty, At least arch doesn't support it via makepkg officially. (It is possible to use an AUR package which is what im using for my own pkgbuild scripts) but it's not ideal.

PS. you can shrink the png to 640kb using ect (or to 372kb using JXL lossless but image-rs doesn't support jxl yet and it's unclear when they will be willing to) if size is a factor

how do you do it via AUR package @Quackdoc ? i do think this is an error in git-lfs, not in makepkg, so i reported it with git-lfs: https://github.com/git-lfs/git-lfs/issues/5644.

you can find a demo here https://github.com/Quackdoc/pkgbuild-scripts/blob/Master/cosmic-epoch/cosmic-greeter-git/PKGBUILD I think I have it working, I may be mistaken
