Improvements to packaging script for Linux:

    - Qt plugins and libraries (and associated files) bundled only if necessary
    - Dependencies corrected (for Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04, at least),
    mostly manually for now
    - run.sh sets Qt plugin path environment variable (=> qt.conf
    no longer needed; removed)
