### Bug Description

When trying to login via a magic-link or OAuth, users are either sent a link via email, or taken to the said service to login through it via the browser. Both scenarios will yield an `open with xdg-open` when prompted.

Adding the mimetype `x-scheme-handler/appflowy-flutter` in `.config/mimeapps.list ` does result in a correct link to AppFlowy when prompted.

`.config/mimeapps.list`
```
[Default Applications]
.
..
...
x-scheme-handler/appflowy-flutter=appflowy.desktop
```
Where `appflowy.desktop` is as follows:

```
[Desktop Entry]
Name=AppFlowy
GenericName=App Flowy Notes
Comment=Bring projects, wikis, and teams together with AI
Icon=AppFlowy
Type=Application
Categories=office;
DBusActivatable=true
SingleMainWindow=true
X-GNOME-UsesNotifications=true
X-GNOME-SingleWindow=true
Exec=PATH/TO/APPIMAGE %U
StartupNotify=false
Terminal=false
MimeType=x-scheme-handler/appflowy-flutter;

```

However, this will still lead to an issue where AppFlowy does not respond to the access token. Following https://github.com/AppFlowy-IO/AppFlowy/issues/5651#issuecomment-2370820785 solution, and manually grabbing the access token and executing AppFlowy will result in a buffer overflow.

The hacky way around this for magic-links is to delete both `&expires_at` and `expires_in` from the access token.
