Jehan 6449dd7c14 devel-docs: add a tip for testing an older GIMP version with flatpak.
Flatpak repositories can store successive builds (up to 20 in the
Flathub repository in particular), even though by default it installs
only the last build.
I added in `debugging-tips.txt` the commands to search for and
explicitly install an older build of our official GIMP build. This can
be useful to compare some behaviorial changes as reported by users,
without having to re-compile old commits just for a quick test.
