Resolves #232 partially, getting the app back into acceptable feel.

Part of the performance regression is a webkit upgrade that i can do nothing about :(

… shadows, WebKitGTK paints without compositing and repainted the whole grid on every transition frame
…ark and light theme, WebKitGTK painted the seven radial gradients on the CPU for every repaint of the grid and of anything above it
…ification log cover it, WebKitGTK repainted the file grid underneath for every hover in the overlay
…GTK 4 does not take it from argv and left the X11 WM_CLASS and the Wayland app id empty, and WebKit 6.0 in a flatpak needs the app id or the portal refuses its web process
…0 and falling back to webkit2gtk-4.1, each picked its own API and the binary linked GTK 3 and GTK 4 at once
