Qupath installer "fails" because it doesn't find the path on chmod #27

I wanted to give a try to abba and installed qupath from your script (I already have fiji and was thinking to install abba via fiji plugin).
When installing on linux and selecting ~/qupath as the path, the actual install will happen under

/home/user/qupath/QuPath-v0.5.1-Linux/QuPath/bin

But the installer will incorrectly error out with

We give execution right
chmod: cannot access '/home/user/qupath/QuPath/bin/QuPath': No such file or directory
chmod: cannot access '/home/user/qupath/QuPath/bin/QuPath.sh': No such file or directory
QuPath installation failed, please retry with administrator rights or install in a folder requiring less priviledge
Press [Enter] to end the script

In addition, install_qupath.sh installs version 0.5.1. I am not sure about the motivation to not update to 0.6.0 on installer versions since the extensions are designed for 0.6.0 onwards now.

I changed the version to 0.6.0 on version_software_script.sh and it still is trying to hit the wrong directory construct

We give execution right
chmod: cannot access '/home/user/qupath/QuPath/bin/QuPath.sh': No such file or directory
QuPath successfully installed
Removing temporary download folder /home/matias/qupath/temp_dl

Software works as expected and I thought that this might be confusing for the user

Happy to submit PR if needed.
