After the recent drop of freeimage on arch repos, we need an alternative to install it on arch.

This PR hopes to keep the /scripts/linux/arch in a working state.

Uses yay, or paru if available. If not the user should know how to do it with makepkg on its own

Added few missing dependencies in the install from main arch repositories .

Hope to keep it up to date to keep enjoying oF on Arch btw !!

Related issues have raised in the past and will still do but we can keep an eye.

#8472

Previously compilation of oF and PG would fail otherwise.

Thanks to you for all the work :-) Hope someone can verify soon on a fresh install. There has to be said that if one misses the script download_libs.sh , can run into problems too. Will think about it @ofTheo
