v0.5.0

Rereleased with fixed CI

New stable release, including all the changes from the 0.4.9.x beta releases.

For packagers:

• The dependencies have changed, as copypasted hardcoded libraries were torn out, replaced by an actual dependency on them, notably at least python-ioctl-opt and python-libusb1, hopefully I am not forgetting any others
• Non-git cloned repositories are currently broken with the build system, you can git clone a tag.

Removed support for Python 3.9.
Removed prebuilds for Ubuntu Focal, Debian bullseye, Fedora 39 .
Temporarily disabled Debian Trixie as the arm64 builds were failing(so does Fedora 41).

• AppImage: add missing icons by @git-developer in #25
• chore: add dependency ioctl-opt by @git-developer in #28
• AppImage: fix segfault by @git-developer in #32
