Create a good Downloads page

[dkozel]

KiCad does a great job of helping people quickly install their application. Our wiki page is getting to be decent, but is limited in it's accessibility.

This needs some coordination with how to store binaries/tarballs or a separate metadata file inside the download folder to generate the list of downloads on the fly.

Mmmm I love this page https://kicad-pcb.org/download/ I can see us having a page just like that, where each box links to the wiki page for that OS, since we already have the wiki pages made, no real need to convert them to hugo, it will just make it harder to update little things in the future. It is a little weird that gnuradio.org doesn't have a big obvious "Download" or "Install GNU Radio" link at the top, we just have the Getting Started which links to the Tutorials list. So yeah once I get hugo working on my computer I'll see if I can get a similar page working.

not solving the "where do we store it" problem, an approach (not so uninspired by kicad's approach, thanks @777arc !) is in #58

With the imminent release of the new GR installers there will presumably be communications, to the GR/academic/RF engineering/science community and wider Internet, about how installing GNU Radio is now easier /takes less witchcraft/fewer magical incantations.

With these communications, there's a possibility more users who are not Python/Linux experts/magicians/witches will try installing GNU Radio.

This will mean creating a "download GNU Radio" page which helps each potential downloader find the best download option for them.

#58 design of @marcusmueller is really nice and provides some of that "best download option routing". Right now the downloads leading to the wiki page is fine, but it's going to need improvement when another...3? 4? installers are released. It's going to get much busier and more confusing.

In order to support those potential new users eager to install GR, what needs to happen to get a new download page implemented? I'm happy to help make a good downloads page happen.
