docs: add Manjaro/Arch installation instructions to README
- Keep Ubuntu/Debian section intact - Add dedicated Manjaro/Arch section with correct package names (evolution package includes dev headers, no separate -dev needed) - Point clone URL to this fork which has the Evolution 3.56+ fixes - Note that .deb package is not applicable on Arch-based distros Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
