Currently, when you run melonDS with
QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland ./melonDS-x86_64.AppImage, you get this error:This is because
linuxdeploy-plugin-qtneeds to explicitly configure wayland support at build time. That is what this PR does.Reason for adding the new dependency:
$EXTRA_PLATFORM_PLUGINSneeds the files/usr/lib/{aarch64,x86_64}-linux-gnu/qt6/plugins/platforms/{libqwayland-egl.so,libqwayland-generic.so}, found in theqt6-waylandpackage.References for my implementation:

With this PR, this issue will eventually be closed: #2386. In Qt 6.9, support was added for wayland clients to set their window icon using
setWindowIcon, which in turn uses the waylandxdg-toplevel-iconprotocol. However, AppImage is currently being built and packaged against a version lower than 6.9, due to the fact that the Ubuntu image of the GitHub Actions runner is using version 24.04 LTS, where theqt6-waylandpackage is still at version 6.4! Therefore, this PR is the first step, then it is just a matter of waiting for GitHub Actions to update its system to a version that has Qt 6.9, and the icon will likely be available in wayland.
