Public bug reported:
switcherooctl and "Launch using Discrete Graphics Card" don't work in
Wayland sessions with Nvidia GPUs.
Judging by the output of `switcherooctl`, it looks like it only knows
how to switch GLX (Xorg sessions) and not EGL (Wayland sessions). This
seems to be confirmed by the fact that GLX apps like Google Chrome are
correctly launched on the discrete GPU. Just not native Wayland EGL
apps.
