Allow recursive folder addition of executables (closes #379) #596

Thanks for making linuxdeployqt available.

The issue referenced is rather old and the current solution used in the inkscape packaging (using a for loop in shell scripting) might be all needed.

This patch adds a -executable-dir command-line that adds all files in a folder, recursively.

Supporting wildcards might need additional dependencies and doesn't seem worth making the code more complex.

Note: the build instructions reference to an AppImage on bintray.com that is no longer available. It might be worth posting an alternative someplace else. It builds find with system Qt Creator.
