Describe the Bug

Following the documentation WRT the latest prerelease appimage:

$ ./sunshine.AppImage --install Password: KERNEL=="uinput", SUBSYSTEM=="misc", OPTIONS+="static_node=uinput", TAG+="uaccess" KERNEL=="uhid", TAG+="uaccess" Failed to set capabilities on file '/tmp/.mount_sunshiH3L3t0/usr/bin/sunshine-v2024.930.214046': Permission denied

Appimage fuse mounts do not allow other users by default, and that includes root.

$ sudo ./sunshine.AppImage --install KERNEL=="uinput", SUBSYSTEM=="misc", OPTIONS+="static_node=uinput", TAG+="uaccess" KERNEL=="uhid", TAG+="uaccess" Failed to set capabilities on file '/tmp/.mount_sunshiCkDmP5/usr/bin/sunshine-v2024.930.214046': Read-only file system

Appimage fuse mounts are read-only, because appimage is a squashfs. Nobody actually tested any of this, did they?

Expected Behavior

Installation steps in the documentation work as described for the appimage release. (./sunshine.AppImage --install, sudo setcap cap_sys_admin+p $(readlink -f $(which sunshine))

Additional Context
