Add wayland support for Linux #810

Is your suggested enhancement related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently, the launcher only works through XWayland when running on any Wayland-based desktop, and, with majority of desktop environments and window managers moving to Wayland, adding native Wayland support seems necessary, especially given the slow speeds and many bugs given by XWayland.

Describe the solution you'd like

Implement native Wayland support, or compile the normal binaries with Wayland support

Describe alternatives you've considered

This would also fix the blurry appearance of the app on most laptop screens caused by fractional scaling not being supported by XWayland (outside of KDE, at least)

Not to mention just about every DE is ditching X11 from now on, and NVIDIA on wayland is no longer garbage (for me at least)
