Description

[See original issue on GitLab](https://gitlab.com/BuildStream/buildstream/-/issues/548)

I think it would be a good idea to offer a buildstream flatpak (build it as part of the CI, for example)
- we will solve the distribution problem in several package formats
- we will use the flatpak plugin we want to improve

As a reference, a flatpak of flatpak-builder exist
