[FEATURE REQUEST] Option to launch fullscreen RDP session when opening an Office app #111

Description

@bmFtZQ

The FreeRDP window mode seems to be quite buggy and unreliable for my system (Fedora 43, GNOME, Wayland), and has issues with resizing and maximising/minimising windows.

Launching a Windows desktop RDP session works just fine (using the option inside LinOffice > Tools > Access Via RDP) and is quite usable even though it is limited to a single virtual desktop inside a window.

Maybe a setting can be added to prefer a regular desktop RDP session when opening one of the Microsoft Office apps, or making the regular RDP desktop session easier and faster to access by adding an option to open a regular RDP desktop session in the system app launcher directly, much like the existing Office shortcuts (Word, PowerPoint, etc.)

Also if possible, a file association option to launch that desktop RDP session with Windows' chosen app (Word, PowerPoint, etc.) without duplicating the RDP sessions (although this isn't strictly necessary as files can still be manually opened in the Windows File Explorer using the shared home folder).
