docs(wiki-debian): update install instructions

Issue: a. Step 2 of Installation on Debian-based distributions returns a deprecation warning:
wget -q https://wire-app.wire.com/linux/releases.key -O- | sudo apt-key add -
> Warning: apt-key is deprecated. Manage keyring files in trusted.gpg.d instead (see apt-key(8))
b. If the warning in step 2 is ignored, the user will see a similar warning when running step 4:
sudo apt-get update
> W: https://wire-app.wire.com/linux/debian/dists/stable/InRelease: Key is stored in legacy trusted gpg keyring (/etc/apt/trusted.gpg), see the DEPRECATION section in apt-key(8) for details
Suggested fix:
Updating steps 2 & 3 in the Installation on Debian-based distributions section, with the following:
Import our PGP signing key to be able to verify the downloaded package
sudo wget -q -O /usr/share/keyrings/wire-desktop.key https://wire-app.wire.com/linux/releases.keyAdd our repository address to your sources list
echo "deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/wire-desktop.key] https://wire-app.wire.com/linux/debian stable main" \ | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/wire-desktop.list

Thanks, I tested this on debian 12 and it works wonderfully.
