Fix read-only /app failure + add app icon

Browse Source 
On first launch O3DE pip-installs its 'o3de' CLI with 'pip install -e'
(editable), which writes an egg-info next to the source under read-only
/app and fails ([Errno 30] Read-only file system), leaving the venv broken
("unable to install O3DE's built-in Python").

- Patch cmake/LYPython.cmake at build time to force a normal (non-editable)
  install, which builds in a temp dir and lands in the writable ~/.o3de venv.
- Drop the build-time get_python "bake": the venv is per-user (keyed to
  $HOME), so it can only be created at runtime; baking under a throwaway
  build HOME did nothing. Speeds up CI; removes cmake/python3 build deps and
  the network build-arg.
- Add a real launcher icon (org.o3de.O3DE.png).
