data: Disable Xwayland splash screen

Alfred Neumayer requested to merge personal/fredldotme/noxwaylandsplash into main

We cannot reasonably assume Xwayland to follow the Ubuntu Touch/Lomiri app lifecycle model since it is a proxy for other apps to present window contents to the shell. So do two things:

  • Remove X-Ubuntu-Touch to avoid confusion about its lifecycle management
  • Hide the splash screen that otherwise gets drawn before first frame presentation

This has the benefit of avoiding Xwayland getting stuck by closing a splash screen before the app has an opportunity to present the first frame to the shell.
