New fcitx5 release being pushed to flathub and manual intervention may be required

[Weng Xuetian]

Hi all,
After a long stall due to flathub's new lint mechanism, new releases
of the fcitx5 packages are being pushed to flathub.

There is one thing that needs attention in this new release. While
it's already mentioned in
https://groups.google.com/g/fcitx-announce/c/RsJC-7vkObI, I'd like to
bring it up again for attention, since this is the first release in
flathub that get this change.

While the old data will not be missing, you will need to reconfigure
fcitx5 to add input methods to it. You may want to copy your existing
data from ~/.config/fcitx5 ~/.loca/share/fcitx5 to
~/.var/app/org.fcitx.Fcitx5/config/fcitx5 and
~/.var/app/org.fcitx.Fcitx5/data/fcitx5 correspondingly.

This brings one benefit though, which is if you have both non-flatpak
and flatpak versions installed, the data won't be shared and config
won't be touched due to different versions and different packages
installed.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks,
Xuetian
