[Idea] Integrate "WAR - WebOS Ad Removal" into the homebrew channel

This would be ideal as a toggle, to enable/disable the script's execution on boot.

I wouldn't suggest integrating this to the homebrew channel.
My idea is to just add an uninstall button in the homebrew channel for hidden/non-frontend apps/scripts.

Or perhaps even a non packaged format to easily support scripts only.

The problem is, not all WebOS versions are supported by this script.

On my tv, which is WebOS 4.4.1-1004, there is no home screen app (it's the overlay style home screen), so /usr/palm/applications/com.webos.app.home/ does not exist.

You might have to check for the existence of the required files first and give a warning if they don't exist.
# These are the source files that we will copy and modify. WAR_AI_BOARD_SOURCE="/usr/palm/applications/com.webos.app.home/qml/UserInterfaceLayer/Containers/Main/AIBoard.qml" WAR_RECOMMENDED_SOURCE="/usr/palm/applications/com.webos.app.home/qml/UserInterfaceLayer/Containers/Main/Recommended.qml"

On top of that, those files have some modifications across versions, so you would also have to check the sha512 sum of each file before enabling the option.
