Random installed from Flathub invokes generic Wayland icon under KDE Plasma 5.24.5 (both window switcher and task manager side) #35

Description

Random's icon (version 1.4 installed from Flathub) is not being picked up by neither window switcher nor task manager when using under KDE Plasma 5.24.5 in Wayland session (generic Wayland icon is being used instead).

Steps to reproduce

1. Install Random in version 1.4 from Flathub on system with KDE Plasma 5.24.5 (language set to Hungarian, I don't know if it has anything to do with the problem though).
2. Make sure Plasma is running in Wayland mode (on Fedora 36 KDE it can be choosen in SDDM display manager).
3. Run Random from either Krunner, Konsole or application launcher.
4. Look at the panel, also press Alt+Tab to show window switcher

Expected results

Random's own icon should be shown in both window switcher and on the panel in task manager.

Actual results

Generic Wayland icon is shown in both window switcher and on the panel in task manager.

Hmmm, the link shown only covers Qt apps; Random functions on Gtk and libadwaita. I may look into this, but I currently do not have the resources or time to do much maintainment on this app, which is why the Flathub version is way outdated. I would like to fix this though, as a good experience is one of the goals of this app.
