dbus: Use xdg-desktop-portal Inhibit when running under Flatpak or Snap
In order to inhibit the screen saver, SDL currently uses
`org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver.Inhibit()` and, as a fallback, a protocol
specific method for X11 or Wayland.
Accessing `org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver` is usually not allowed when
inside a sandbox like Flatpak, unless the permission has been explicitly
granted to the application.
Another issue is that the Wayland protocol "Idle inhibit" is relatively
new and not yet widely adopted. For example Mutter still doesn't support
it.
For those reasons, when running under Flatpak or Snap, we should try to
inhibit the screen saver by using xdg-desktop-portal instead. This
should give us an higher chance of success.
