got AppImage build working on my desktop

Browse Source 
On my desktop the AppImage build kept picking up the `Htop.desktop`
file, whereas on my laptop it would pick up the
`medicore-loadout.desktop` file as expected. I'm not sure of why the
discrepancy, maybe some difference in the directory listing order. In
any case, I fixed it by deleting all desktop files, except the
loadout's, from the AppDir.

NOTE that the AppImage doesn't like working with files within `/tmp`. I don't
know of a workaround for this at the moment.
