Installation script using dash shell instead of bash #239

Description

@muabdalaleam

When i executed the installation command found on the documentation website:
curl -fsSL https://github.com/zen-browser/updates-server/raw/refs/heads/main/install.sh | sh

It didn't work and I got the following error message:
sh: 3: set: Illegal option -o pipefail

After some fast research I found that my device was executing it using dash instead of bash even
though there was a bash shebang in the start of the script I know this might be a problem with my
machine but I think there might be other machines with the same problem anyway it got fixed by
piping into bash instead:
curl -fsSL https://github.com/zen-browser/updates-server/raw/refs/heads/main/install.sh | bash

So I kindly ask you to either update the installation command in the docs to use bash instead of sh
or make the script dash compatible.
