Should we auto-generate SD card payloads? #258

From my experience, the most complicated step to installing Aroma, today, is setting up the SD card. Everything else is pretty step-by-step.

Is there any desire to build a ZIP or ISO automatically? I've written a demo webapp that automatically builds a ZIP file of the ISFShax payload---that should be simple to adapt to Aroma: wiiu-isfshax-packager.

Unfortunately, it's not ready-to-go: GitHub releases do not have CORS enabled, so I'm using a CORS proxy to fetch the files; they are free for open source, but we'd need to contact them. An alternative is to generate the ZIP via GitHub Action, so users aren't constantly regenerating the same bits.

Posting this issue to allow discussion/gauge interest before I continue investigating :).
