Subject: [PATCH] Add Debian/Fedora dependency install scripts, rename Arch one

Splits install-deps.sh into per-distro scripts (install_deps_arch.sh,
install_deps_debian.sh, install_deps_fedora.sh) since package names and
managers differ; ascii-image-converter is built via go install on
Debian/Fedora since it's AUR-only on Arch.

 ## Requirements
 
-- Arch Linux (or another `pacman`/AUR-based distro) is assumed by
-  `install-deps.sh`
 - `fswebcam`, `ascii-image-converter`, `v4l-utils`
 - `python-opencv` (for `photobooth.py`)
 - A V4L2-compatible webcam
 - Optionally, a parallel-port printer wired up via `parport`/`parport_pc`/`lp`
   kernel modules, for hardcopy prints

+`install_deps_arch.sh` installs [`yay`](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/yay)
