Unix/Linux Desktop File #601

Description

@IanDarwin

It's inconvenient to have to start VisualVM from the command line when running under any of the common X window system window managers. Granted it can be run from e.g., IntelliJ, other IDEs, but opening it directly is sometimes convenient.

A simple solution would be to provide a .desktop file, that the installer could drop into their standard location for such things.

It can be as simple as this example https://github.com/IanDarwin/pdfshow/blob/master/unixlinux/pdfshow.desktop or as sophisticated as those that come with some FOSS packages that include 50 or so translations for the title and description.
