feat: add Fedora/RHEL RPM package support with comprehensive documentation

Add native RPM package building for Fedora-based distributions:
- Extend electron-builder configuration to include RPM target
- Add rpm-build installation to GitHub Actions CI/CD workflow
- Update artifact upload patterns to include .rpm files
- Declare proper RPM dependencies (gtk3, libnotify, nss, etc.)
- Use xz compression for optimal package size

Documentation:
- Update README.md with Fedora/RHEL installation instructions
- Create comprehensive docs/install-fedora.md guide covering:
  - Installation methods (dnf/yum, direct URL)
  - System requirements and capabilities
  - Configuration and troubleshooting
  - SELinux handling and firewall rules
  - Performance tips and security considerations
  - Building from source
- Support for Fedora 39+, RHEL 9+, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux

End-to-end support enables Fedora users to install Automaker via:
  sudo dnf install ./Automaker-<version>-x86_64.rpm
