Nathan Lilienthal f32facfbfd Refactor Alacritty scripts
This includes some changes to the scripts `README.md` to provide
some more information on the different Alacritty scripts.

A new script for testing the 24 bit support of Alacritty has been
added with the `24-bit-color.sh` name. This should help with
troubleshooting truecolor support issues.

Since `perf` is a standard tool which is available in the official
repositories for most distributions, it doesn't make much sense to
provide an installation script specifically for Ubuntu. As a result of
this, the script has been removed.

Scripts
=======
## Flamegraph
Run the release version of Alacritty while recording call stacks. After the
Alacritty process exits, a flamegraph will be generated and it's URI printed
as the only output to STDOUT.
```sh
./create-flamegraph.sh
```
Running this script depends on an installation of `perf`.
## ANSI Color Tests
We include a few scripts for testing the color of text inside a terminal. The
first shows various foreground and background varients. The second enumerates
all the colors of a standard terminal. The third enumerates the 24-bit colors.
```sh
./fg-bg.sh
./colors.sh
./24-bit-colors.sh
```
