Description

It seems when forcing VA-API, the shader caching is incorrectly given?

Is it possible to give the correct shader path for Flatpaks?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the `/var` permission error while forcing VA-API in the Flatpak build, then trace how the shader-cache path is selected. Done means the cache uses a writable, correct Flatpak path and the permission-denied message no longer appears.
