Human Written Description

I added a repository-native Arch Linux packaging path so users can install Handy using a standard makepkg/Pacman workflow without manual extraction steps. This makes it easier for Arch users to install and keep the app in a package-managed way.

The change keeps binaries and resources as shipped in the upstream release .deb and stages the same layout under /usr, which matches the existing runtime expectations of the app.
