Install hyprland-preview-share-picker-git on Omarchy

This is the git/development-snapshot build of hyprland-preview-share-picker, Hyprland's alternative screen-share picker. It replaces the default text-only picker with live thumbnail previews of open windows and connected monitors in a tabbed GTK4 window, so you can confirm what you're sharing before a call or recording starts. Being the -git package, it tracks the latest unreleased commits rather than a tagged release.
