apprt/gtk: prefer X11 backend on GTK 4.14 (#2893)

I'm unsure if this is an environmental issue just for me or if this is
more widespread or what other downsides this may have. I'm more than
willing to revert this if it ends up causing different issues.

I found that with NixOS 24.11 and GTK 4.14 on my system, the default
Wayland GDK backend fails to initialize EGL. With GTK 4.16 everything is
fine.

If I force X11 then everything also works fine. This commit forces X11
for GTK 4.14 specifically (4.16+ is allowed to use Wayland).
