Subject: [PATCH] Disable the Zygote process to prevent it from randomly
 crashing

This launches Spotify with --no-zygote by default, in order to prevent
the Zygote process from randomly crashing and generating useless
coredumps.

This problem is not exclusive to the Flatpak package. See:

- https://community.spotify.com/t5/Desktop-Linux/Spotify-binary-frequently-crashing-and-dumping-core-Ubuntu/td-p/6534369

Fixes #320
