Summary

Otherwise file browsers do not recognize the Blender executable. This is
already done for official releases. We leave it off for non-portable builds,
since this is what Linux distributions will typically use which probably
want to use the operating system default. Using a file browser to launch
executables from e.g. /usr/bin would be rare as wel.

This came up a few times with users making their own Blender build.
