linux/systemd: add an app- prefix to the systemd unit
The XDG Freedesktop Portal has a _major_ undocumented requirement for
programs that are launched/controlled by `systemd` to interact with the
Portal. The unit _must_ be named `app-<appid>.service`. The Portal uses
the systemd unit name figure out what the program's application ID is
and it will only look at unit names that begin with `app-`. I can find
no place that this is documented other than by inspecting the code or the
issue and PR that introduced this feature. See the following code:
7d4d48cf07/src/xdp-utils.c (L152-L220)
This may fix many people's issues with getting global shortcuts
to work.
Note that this is a breaking change if you have been using Ghostty
compiled from source since #7433 was merged. You will need to ensure
that any Ghosty systemd unit files _not_ prefixed with `app-` are
deleted.
