AppImage crashes immediately on Arch Linux with mesa 25.x (workaround: extract AppImage)

### Is there an existing issue for this? (Please read the description)

- [x] I have searched the existing issues

### Current Behavior

Running the AppImage on Arch Linux causes an immediate segfault. Doesn't matter which backend you force (x11, wayland, software rendering), all crash the same way:

```
(spotube:332629): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_gl_context_make_current: assertion 'GDK_IS_GL_CONTEXT (context)' failed
[1]    332629 segmentation fault (core dumped)
```

Extracting the AppImage and running the binary directly works fine:

```bash
~/Apps/spotube.appimage --appimage-extract
cd squashfs-root
./spotube
```

My guess is that the EGL/GTK libs bundled in the AppImage don't play nice with mesa 25.x. When you extract and run directly, the system's own libEGL gets loaded instead of the bundled one, and it works.

**Environment:**
- Arch Linux, kernel 6.12.74-1-lts
- Compositor: niri (Wayland) + Xwayland 24.1.9
- GPU: AMD Radeon Renoir (amdgpu)
- Mesa: 25.3.5-arch1.1, radeonsi
- Spotube: v5.1.0 AppImage

**Workaround:** extract the AppImage as above and run the binary directly.

### Expected Behavior

The AppImage launches normally without needing to be extracted first.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Download `Spotube-linux-x86_64.AppImage` from the v5.1.0 release
2. `chmod +x Spotube-linux-x86_64.AppImage`
3. Run `./Spotube-linux-x86_64.AppImage`
4. Segfault occurs immediately, app never opens
