wayland: Implement xdg-activation when opening urls (#11368)

Since Wayland doesn't have a way for windows to activate themselves,
currently, when you click on a link in Zed, the browser window opens in
the background.

This PR implements the `xdg-activation` protocol to get an activation
token, which the browser can use to raise its window.
