Support wayland a little bit more clearly #223

I recently purchased a Launch Lite. The AppImage refused to open, citing "Failed to initialize GTK" even though I knew I had all of the libraries installed. After recompiling Rust, gtk3, glib, cairo, installing gtk4 (even though it wasn't needed; done as a sanity check), I realized it was a wayland thing. Running the appimage with "xhost + local; ..." fixes the issue, but this was not clear at all. Using the privilege escalation in the application itself did not work for me OOTB, citing that "this incident will be reported" and such even though i'm in the wheel group and used the right password.
