I first made the flake to package waycast when I was a noob to nix.

I think there's a cleaner way to package it so that all the overlay rigamaroll isn't needed.

The app install + home manager module should still work.

An easy way to test the packaging locally would also be appreciated as part of this project.

We also need to make sure that the flake adds a systemd service that runs waycast on login so that the daemon starts and is kept running in the background.

Another thing is the xorg. packages have been moved to the root namespace so we need to update that into the flake too.
