0.12.0 Linux package does not contain `opentesarena-<version>` directory

Not a big thing, but the targ.gz package for latest Linux version does not contain the opentesarena-<version> directory (windows package does have it).
The impact is that instructions in readme do not work as they are now: https://github.com/afritz1/OpenTESArena#linux-ubuntu-1604.

Oh. I think this is a minor difference with how the 7-zip shortcuts zip the directories. On Windows I right-click the folder and select Add to "<...>.zip" which puts it one folder deeper, but with the Linux build I go through Add to archive... to make the .tar and then gzip that.

When decompressing the .tar.gz, ideally I think I should be able to do Extract Here a couple times (one for the .tar.gz, another for the .tar), which means the Linux build should have that extra folder.

Hmm, works fine doing Extract Here twice with the 0.11.0 .tar.gz, so must be something different I did for 0.12.0.

Okay fixed. Thanks Abel.

I realized the Readme does not show -Linux64 after the filename. Will add that to have consistency across releases.

Okay fixed. Thanks Abel.

Happy to help. The progress of latest version is amazing ๐ŸŽ‰
