ready for review, feel free to make nits before or after merge. one note - i've temporarily removed the step about running gamescope builds from within the build directory itself pending a fix to #1539 I can add in the correct method for running local gamescope once fixed, or we can just recommend installing to edit: force pushed for some grammar nits in the mangoapp section |

People previously reported that the suggested launch arguments would work without using `--` before `%command%` or an application. This was unintentional behavior, and a recent Steam stable client update has made this method no longer function. Let's add a clear warning to the readme to point people towards in case of any confusion.

work-in-progress readme makeover to account for all of the gamescope additions and changes in the past year or so. Will be revising and proofreading this a bit further plus adding a few more sections before marking this ready for review.
I may move the build deps/run-time requirement stuff to a separate wiki page similar to https://wiki.fex-emu.com/index.php/Development:Setting_up_FEX just to keep this cleaner, and only keeping the basic compilation instructions on the main page. Maybe moving the detailed sections into here: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/gamescope/wiki/Distribution-specific-instructions or https://github.com/ValveSoftware/gamescope/wiki#build makes more sense?
issue template will be separate.
