Closes #56314

When running `cargo run -p gpui --example hello_world` on a wayland
linux machine, the code panics and give the following output:
```
thread 'main' (15645) panicked at crates/gpui_linux/src/linux.rs:55:14:
internal error: entered unreachable code
note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace
```
and the related code is:

https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/c8f09caee42ea4e27991ca55257f6f9c7d7c67d2/crates/gpui_linux/src/linux.rs#L29-L57

`gpui::guess_compositor()` correctly returns `"Wayland"`, but the
corresponding match arm is gated behind `#[cfg(feature = "wayland")]` in
`gpui_linux`, and that feature is never enabled. During the extract
gpui_platform refactor (#49277), the `wayland` and `x11` features were
added to the `zed` binary's dependency on `gpui_platform`, but were
missed in the `[dev-dependencies]` of `gpui/Cargo.toml`, which is what
the examples use.

This PR adds the missing features to the dev-dependency so that
`gpui_platform` propagates them to `gpui_linux` when building examples.
