Linux Chromium Packages

Some Linux distributions package up Chromium for easy installation. Please note that Chromium is not identical to Google Chrome -- see chromium_browser_vs_google_chrome.md -- and that distributions may (and actually do) make their own modifications.

TODO: Move away from tables.
