This adds the StartupWMClass property to the desktop file, which window managers can use to determine when chatterino has opened and which window belongs to it. GNOME uses this property, so this will fix #1863. You can test this by applying this patch to the desktop file of an existing install.

Describe the bug
The chatterino desktop file icon that appears when searching for it on the application search menu is a proper shortcut to launch chatterino like you would through the terminal, and on the taskbar the icon is correct, but when you actually click the icon or launch the program it creates a separate empty icon on the taskbar that doesn't appear under a taskbar tab for the original shortcut.
To reproduce
Launch the app through the terminal with "chatterino" and it will be an empty icon on the taskbar, or click on the shortcut on the taskbar for the same effect
Screenshots
To the left is the normal chatterino app icon, and the empty icon that i'm hovering over is what appears when the actual program launches
Chatterino version
Chatterino 2.1.7
Operating system
Arch Linux
