At least for the time being, the background portal's app monitor
only supports flatpak apps, which are the only apps where we can
reliably match processes to .desktop files and assume that they
belong to graphical apps.
To indicate that there may well be apps that don't appear in the
list despite running in the background, add a clarifying section
title.

Sandboxed apps that run without a window are detected by the new
background monitoring service, introduced by xdg-desktop-portal.
We have an opportunity to improve the predictability of the desktop
and ensure that application state in transparently reported to users
by showing these apps, and allowing them to closed.
Add a new background apps menu to the quick settings, that is always
added at the bottom of the popover, and has a slightly custom, flat
style applied to it.
Show background-running apps in this menu, and allow closing them
by first attempting to execute the 'quit' action through D-Bus, and
if that fails, sending SIGKILL to the process.
