Stremio is a video streaming application that aggregates content from
various sources. This package provides the GTK4-based native Linux client
with modern Wayland support and GNOME integration.

This is the next-generation client using GTK4 + libadwaita + webkit2,
complementing the existing Qt5-based client (ITP #943703).

Key advantages:
- Native GTK4/libadwaita interface
- Better Wayland support
- Smaller dependency footprint
- Modern webkit2 backend

I plan to maintain this package and work toward official Debian inclusion.
This will be my second package as part of becoming a Debian Package
Maintainer.
