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.
