Update install instructions for gardengnome.sh.
Also finish renaming all references from "desktopgnome.sh" since this is still the only script in here.

Sticking on the Stable update channel is HIGHLY recommended. Both to minimize the number of updates and because Beta and Preview are often subtly broken. Not even Stable is immune though, so do all of this at your own risk.

But keep in mind that this literally just downloads whatever I have here on GitHub and runs it, which is decidedly insecure. I invite you to read the script before running it.

Currently, `desktopgnome.sh` needs to be manually run every OS update. It's possible to set up a systemd unit to automatically run it on boot, but that work hasn't been done yet. Pull requests are welcomed with open arms!

Steam client updates are no problem, though. If an update says "Applying", you'll need to re-run the script. If it just immediately restarts, you're good.
