Fix for Vesktop "Failed to connect to arRPC" (Flatpak)

Issue Description

The issue I've found involves flatpak sandboxing preventing the creation of the discord-ipc-0 ipc service which in turn prevents other applications from communicating with Vesktop's built-in arRPC service.

If you're unsure whether you have this issue, check the directory stored in your $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR environment variable for the discord-ipc-0 service file using the command below:

ls -lah $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR | grep 'discord-ipc-0'
