In the same vein as #58, it would also be useful to mention Godot's presence on Flathub for Flatpak users on the Linux download page.

Flatpak sandboxes your app and I assume there is also signature or hash verification going on with Flatpak installs, which is good.

@Juankz I'm one of its maintainers now, so I guess it can be considered official 🙂

However, it is currently impossible to export to Android using the Godot Flatpak, so that should be noted on the download page somehow. (To fix this, Godot could be modified to use flatpak-spawn to start those programs directly from the host.)

Calinou pushed a commit to flathub/org.godotengine.Godot that referenced this issue Jan 17, 2020
This enables spawning host processes via flatpak-spawn by creating wrapper scripts in /app/bin and changes the default editor preference paths to the correct values.
Both utilities must be installed on the host and be accessible via PATH environment variable.

Closes #15
Closes godotengine/godot-website#60
