On first launch O3DE pip-installs its 'o3de' CLI with 'pip install -e'
(editable), which writes an egg-info next to the source under read-only
/app and fails ([Errno 30] Read-only file system), leaving the venv broken
("unable to install O3DE's built-in Python").
- Patch cmake/LYPython.cmake at build time to force a normal (non-editable)
install, which builds in a temp dir and lands in the writable ~/.o3de venv.
- Drop the build-time get_python "bake": the venv is per-user (keyed to
$HOME), so it can only be created at runtime; baking under a throwaway
build HOME did nothing. Speeds up CI; removes cmake/python3 build deps and
the network build-arg.
- Add a real launcher icon (org.o3de.O3DE.png).

O3DE's bundled Qt only ships the xcb platform plugin, so it needs X11/
XWayland. Using --socket=fallback-x11 alongside --socket=wayland meant X11
was not shared on Wayland sessions, leaving DISPLAY empty and Qt unable to
connect. Share --socket=x11 unconditionally instead.

flatpak-builder sandboxes each build command in bubblewrap, which needs
user namespaces / a privileged job container that Gitea act_runner does
not grant by default (bwrap: Creating new namespace failed).
Replace it with scripts/make-flatpak.sh, which uses flatpak
build-init/build-finish/build-export plus plain-shell extraction and the
get_python.sh bake. None of these use bwrap, so an unprivileged container
works. The flatpak-builder manifest stays as a documented alternative.
