Update to latest Electron version (Native Wayland not enabled by default) #182

What happened?

I've noticed that Stoat doesn't use the latest version of Electron, and as such, versions earlier than 39 have the issue where Linux users will face that XWayland is used by default instead of Native Wayland.

So I would really like to request to anyone that it would really help if there was something to auto-update the Electron version used for Stoat desktop.

Thank you!

Workaround to the issue

Either:
A. Add the following commands to the app

--enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland

or

--ozone-platform-hint=wayland --enable-features=WaylandWindowDecorations

B. Upgrade Electron to the latest version
