Add DDNet Server systemd service, drop desktop
Instead of creating a .desktop file for the DDNet-Server executable, use a systemd unit file which runs the server instance as a user called "ddnet" and the service's data in "/var/lib/ddnet". ddnet-sysusers.conf is responsible for creating the user and group if they don't exist. It won't remove them upon package removal though, but one can use 'userdel ddnet' for that. ddnet-tmpfiles.conf is responsible for creating /var/lib/ddnet with the user and group newly created by sysusers.d config file. There will be stored autoexec_server.log, a "records" directory and any other persistent data. When starting the systemd unit file "ddnet-server.service", it runs the DDNet-Server executable with work directory "/var/lib/ddnet" as user "ddnet", which allows to store the persistent files in there. As a consequence of this change, "imagemagick" and "gendesk" are no longer needed for creating .png icon and .desktop files, so they were removed from makedepends array. .gitignore now includes *.conf and *.service to the exception list
