crossover Feature Request: Add crossover to AUR

I think it will be really great idea to add this to the aur repository. Mostly because when installing the .pacman file, and when doing a system update, the update conflicts with CodeWeavers Crossover, causing a system error.

Very lame, I'll see about adding to the AUR but I'll need to add a new build step

I used this application some time ago and wondered why it isn't on the Arch User Repository. Could it be because of the name? I don't know, but I think the project name should be changed.

Anyway, now that I have some packages there myself, I did a PKGBUILD and edited a few things to avoid conflicts with the original CrossOver: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/crossover-overlay-bin

How can I automate this submission process? cc @begin-theadventure

It was added by me and I'm currently the maintainer, however, if you'd like to manage it, then I could orphan the package and let you adopt it.

What files are you posting? I'm not familiar with AUR

AUR mainly consists of PKGBUILDs, which are basically shell script instructions, whether for building or for binary files. In this case, it downloads a specified version of the .rpm package from GitHub and then repackages it accordingly.

If you have a shell script handy or want to PR this into my CI, you would be the man. I don't have a lot of free time.
