Release versions/v1.0.md
Release v1.0 of the spec.
Proposed changes:
- Mandate that the type-2 AppImage runtime must be statically linked so that it can run on non-glibc systems and will not require libraries such as libfuse2
- Mandate the use of the squashfs file format with zstandard compression for type-2 AppImages
