Fixed notifications stealing focus when shown in overlay.

Great that they fixed this!! It was very annoying, but not for Steam Deck, but for desktop wayland composers based in wlroots (eg. sway & co.).
This was the Github ticket, for reference: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/9458
