Create a Linux install for Hypercane

This script should take into account the lessons learned from oduwsdl/raintale#19, oduwsdl/raintale#20, oduwsdl/raintale#21.
Ideally, we would create an RPM install for RedHat-based systems and a DEB install for Debian-based systems, but that may be a bit too much to test for the duration of the IIPC Grant. A tarball containing the necessary files and an installation script is likely enough. To make it administrator-friendly, we could apply Makeself as well. This way the user can download a single file, execute it, and it will extract our content, execute our script, and start up the Hypercane GUI.
I'm marking this as done even though there are still problems. I will create additional issues as we focus on these problems.
