Shrink image by merging game fetch/extract into one layer

The downloaded zips and their extracted contents lived in separate RUN
layers, so the zips never actually left the image despite a later
rm -rf /tmp/apps layer. unzip/smbclient were also left installed after
only being needed at build time. Merging fetch, extract, cleanup, and
package purge into a single RUN drops the image from 2.31GB to 1.6GB.

# TODO
- Reduce image size of `jayfield/dosbox-novnc` (currently ~2.3GB).
- ~~Reduce image size of `jayfield/dosbox-novnc` (currently ~2.3GB).~~ Done: merged the
game download/extract steps and the unzip/smbclient install into a single layer (so the
downloaded zips and the packages only needed to extract them no longer persist in the
final image). 2.31GB -> 1.6GB.
