Note version-agnostic boot-image replay in README

Mention that the patcher works with any Omarchy version (3.4 through
3.6+) and clarify that step 4 of the rebuild preserves the original
ISO's boot layout via xorriso replay.

## Requirements
- **OS**: Arch Linux or Omarchy (to run the patcher)
- **Omarchy ISO**: Download from [omarchy.com](https://omarchy.com)
- **Omarchy ISO**: Download from [omarchy.com](https://omarchy.com) — works with any version (3.4 through 3.6+)
- **UEFI**: Required for dual-boot (no legacy BIOS support)
- **Free disk space**: 20GB+ unallocated space on the target drive
- **USB drive**: For booting the patched ISO (Ventoy recommended)

1. **Extracting** the ISO and its squashfs root filesystem
2. **Injecting** a dual-boot setup script into the live environment
3. **Replacing** the boot sequence to run the dual-boot installer on tty1
4. **Repacking** the squashfs and creating a new bootable ISO
4. **Repacking** the squashfs and rebuilding the ISO via `xorriso` boot-image replay — preserves the original ISO's MBR/GPT/El Torito layout byte-for-byte, so the patcher works across Omarchy versions without per-version tweaks
