[gui] Wayland app_id doesn't match desktop file ID, causing desktop environments to fail desktop entry lookup #2919

Description

Issue details

Describe issue and how to reproduce it

On Wayland, JADX's main window advertises the app_id:

jadx-gui-JadxGUI

However, the installed desktop entry is:

com.github.skylot.jadx.desktop

Desktop environments that associate Wayland windows using the app_id (such as COSMIC) cannot match the running window to the desktop entry because the identifiers differ. As a result, the application appears with a generic fallback icon instead of the JADX icon.
