Description

When trying to apply the `--enable-blink-features=MiddleClickAutoscroll` to my flatpak installation I ran into the problem that there seemed to be no supported method for passing this through.

Looking at spotify's flatpak I saw that they map the .var/apps/.../spotify-flags.conf into their FLAGS variable.
https://github.com/flathub/com.spotify.Client/blob/07d9eba89258069210ef58dfe7a6c16ecb75349f/spotify-bin#L43-L45

Would you be open for adding this? I can create a PR if you'd like.

Research direction

Start by inspecting how this repository launches Vesktop in its Flatpak packaging and compare it with the linked Spotify script's mapping of .var/apps/.../spotify-flags.conf into FLAGS. The change is done when users can provide a corresponding flags configuration and --enable-blink-features=MiddleClickAutoscroll reaches the application.
