Major build changes!

• New dependency! python-lxns is a Python library to control Linux kernel namespaces. For convenience the library is available as a meson subproject and is bundled in source archive. Set use-vendored-python-lxns build option to true to enable meson subproject. If you are a distro maintainer it is recommended to package python-lxns independently and mark it as dependency.
• allow-site-packages-dir was removed. Unfortunately it is impossible to control Python packages install dir with meson. If you still want to install bubblejail in to site-packages you can either patch meson.build or use meson rewrite kwargs delete project / default_options "" command in source prepare step.
• bytecode-optimization build option is replaced with meson's native python.bytecompile. Most distros meson wrappers already set this option.
• tomli support has been dropped. tomlib from Python 3.11standard library is the only supported TOML reading library.

Features

• Source code licensing is now verified with REUSE.
• Log messages now always use stderr.

Fixes

• Fix bubblejail-config GUI utility not using its icon. (reported by @boredsquirrel and @rusty-snake)
• Fix Chromium and Firefox profiles not working on certain distros because of diverging desktop entry names. (reported by @@boredsquirrel)
• Fix instance being left in inoperable state if D-Bus proxy failed to initialize.
• Fix namespaces_limits service sometimes failing because of concurrency races with sandboxed PID.
• Fixed several typos and added codespell to the CI.
