Subject: [PATCH] docs: Add manual method for autostarting fusuma

Updated the README to include instructions for manually creating a desktop entry
to autostart fusuma. This method can be used as an alternative to the
gnome-session-properties approach, addressing compatibility issues on systems
where gnome-session-properties is unavailable. This addition provides a clear
guide for setting up fusuma to start automatically when a session is initiated.

+### Method 2: Creating a Desktop Entry Manually
+
+1. Check the path where you installed fusuma with `which fusuma`
+2. Create a new file named `fusuma.desktop` in the `~/.config/autostart/` directory.
+3. Add the following content to the `fusuma.desktop` file:
+
+```ini
+[Desktop Entry]
+Name=fusuma
+Comment=run fusuma
+Exec={path_to_fusuma} -d --log=/tmp/fusuma.log
+Icon=input-touchpad
+X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=true
+Type=Application
+```
+
+   Replace `{path_to_fusuma}` with the path obtained from `which fusuma`.
+4. Save the file and ensure its permissions are correctly set to be executable.
+5. Restart your system or session to verify that fusuma starts automatically.
