Enable image sharpening in Factorio on Linux
1. Install https://github.com/DadSchoorse/vkBasalt
> pamac build vkbasalt
2. Write to /etc/vkBasalt.conf (or any other path specified in above README):
```
effects = cas
casSharpness = 1
```
3. Set Factorio's Steam launch args:
> ENABLE_VKBASALT=1 LIBGL_KOPPER_DRI2=1 MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE=zink %command%
For more info on args 2, 3: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/OpenGL#OpenGL_over_Vulkan_(Zink)
Image sharpened, no AMD Adrenalin or Proton required!
(now I can get to writing mods with a stable `~/.factorio/mods` output directory)
