Request for ImageMagick #102

ImageMagick is an open source software that can edit and convert raster images. It is similar to ffmpeg, which is already included in webi, in that they are both very powerful at converting and editing media (video for ffmpeg and images for magick), but to achieve that you need to learn obscure command line options.

It is included in most distro's package management systems, as well as distributed as binary on the website.

This would be a great addition. I'm marking this as "up for grabs" for now.

[ ] Linux - AppImage (and unpacking the rpm might work as well)
[ ] macOS - normal tarball
[ ] Windows - looks like a normal zip + exe
[ ] ~~FreeBSD / OpenBSD / NetBSD~~ nothing available

I see that they also have an AppImage, which sounds like it should work. I heard about AppImage, but I haven't actually seen one in the wild or tested it out yet - though I wish they provided a linux tarball like they do for macOS and Windows (zip).
