📄 Description

This PR:

Adds mechanisms to obtain GDK backend at runtime
Displaying the name of the backend in aboutbxo
Added support for detecting C++23 in About box

Tested on both X11 and Wayland and it works as expected. To test in on Wayland there is a need to modify CtrlCore/GtkApp.cpp and modify InitGtkApp function

#if GTK_CHECK_VERSION(3, 10, 0)
	gdk_set_allowed_backends("wayland,x11"); // this fixes wayland issues
#endif

In above code wayland is not there for obvious reasons. We are still heavely basing on X11.

Makefile needs to be updated after pushing it to the master branch.
