Remove '--filesystem=/home' persmission from manifest #2

This is an extremely broad permission that your app shouldn't need access to. If your app needs to save or open users' files, it should do so using the filechooser portal: https://valadoc.org/gtk+-3.0/Gtk.FileChooserNative.html

Sure @danrabbit I will remove the permission and narrow it down to usage of xdg-pictures
