Veloman Yunkan dee57f131c libssl is embedded in the kiwix-desktop appimage
libssl.so and libcrypto.so are embedded in the appimage so that it can
work on newer systems having a deceptively backward incompatible
version of OpenSSL.

The fix includes patching the libQt5Network.so library so that aria2's CA
certificate bundle (being included in the appimage before this change)
is used as a fallback if no certificates can be found in various
locations used for certificate stores on different major Linux
distributions. To this end, the AppRun entry point of the AppImage is
changed from a symlink to the kiwix-desktop binary to a small shell
script that creates a temporary symlink at a hardcoded path
(/tmp/cert_bundle_provided_by_kiwix.crt) pointing to the said
certificate bundle within the AppImage filesystem.
