Summary of the problem

Our Hyprland package should depend on Kitty.

More information

The default Hyprland configuration expects Kitty to be installed. Without it, it is either unclear or impossible to open any other terminal, and thus any other program. We should make sure Kitty is installed with Hyprland for a usable out-of-the-box experience.

Research direction

Locate the Hyprland package definition in the Solus packages repository and review how runtime dependencies are declared. Add Kitty as a runtime dependency, then verify that the package installs Kitty alongside Hyprland so the default terminal configuration works out of the box.
