Updates the install script to:

  1. detect if the OS is using musl and should use the bin with statically linked deps
  2. the $OSTYPE is just "linux" to support OpenSUSE OS (issue described in discord here
  3. Removes unnecessary wrapping of spin directory in array which makes the syntax unsupported by sh

We may also want to optionally handle the installation of plugins. The plugins installed on linux-musl will probably be broken as we do not distinguish between libc.

@karthik2804 to clarify, that means folks using a distro that uses musl cannot write JS spin apps because that requires a plugin right? Should we track this as an issue somewhere -- building plugins with statically linked deps?

@kate-goldenring, Yeah - any of the plugins will not work. The JS stuff will be replaced soon once we move over but things like cloud, kube and the trigger-plugins will not. I am not sure building all plugins as statically linked binaries is the best approach here. We may want spin to gain knowledge and fetch appropriate plugins?
