Issue details
Describe issue and how to reproduce it
On Wayland, JADX's main window advertises the app_id:
jadx-gui-JadxGUIHowever, the installed desktop entry is:
com.github.skylot.jadx.desktopDesktop environments that associate Wayland windows using the app_id (such as COSMIC) cannot match the running window to the desktop entry because the identifiers differ. As a result, the application appears with a generic fallback icon instead of the JADX icon.
