Fixes #136
Problem
On Linux, xdg-desktop-portal infers the app ID of a non-sandboxed app from its systemd scope (
app-<id>-*.scope). An app started from a terminal gets an empty ID; one started from an IDE inherits the IDE's ID. GNOME Shell then rejects notifications withorg.gtk.Notifications.Error.InvalidApp.Change
AppNotificationOptions.AppId.org.freedesktop.host.portal.Registry.Register(appId, {})before any other portal call on its connection (xdg-desktop-portal 1.19+)..desktopfile), the error is ignored and the portal's inferred ID is used, as before.AppIdisn't set. Avalonia's own D-Bus connection isn't touched.Requires an installed
