Bumps the Flatpak manifest's runtime-version and sdk from GNOME 48 to 50. GNOME 48 went end-of-life on 2026-03-24 (flatpak remote-info flathub org.gnome.Platform//48), so fresh installs hit the same "runtime not found" failure reported for 47. Also adds an Unreleased changelog entry.

Why this approach

  • Only the runtime/SDK lines are touched — the .deb source SHA256 is left alone since CI updates it dynamically, which was the sticking point on the earlier fix attempt.
  • Pins org.gnome.Sdk//50 explicitly alongside runtime-version 50.
  • Per AI_POLICY.md: this change was prepared with AI tooling (Devin), and verified manually end-to-end before submitting — see below.

Tested

  • flatpak remote-info flathub org.gnome.Platform//48 confirms EOL; org.gnome.Platform//50 is the current stable runtime.
  • Built the manifest with org.flatpak.Builder: dependencies resolved from Flathub, appstream-compose passed, repo export OK.
  • Installed the built bundle and launched the sandboxed binary — stayed running, no runtime errors.
  • Tested on x86_64 only; that's the sole arch the manifest builds (only-arches).

Closes #840

GNOME runtime 48 reached end-of-life on March 24, 2026, so fresh Flatpak
installs fail to resolve the required runtime. Bump runtime-version and
sdk to 50, the current stable GNOME runtime on Flathub.

Closes #840
