Tweaks for Orchis

Fix for libadwaita (Gnome-shell >= 42.0)

run: ./install.sh -l (Default light version will installed)
This fix is just a link from selected Ochis gtk-4.0 theme in $HOME/.theme to $HOME/.config/gtk-4.0/gtk.css
so it will not support change theme through Gnome-tweaks
if you want install other theme version for libadwaita you can run like:
./install.sh -c dark -l #(Link dark version)
./install.sh -c dark -t purple -l #(Link dark purple version)
and so on ...
Fix for Flatpak
sudo flatpak override --filesystem=xdg-config/gtk-3.0 && sudo flatpak override --filesystem=xdg-config/gtk-4.0
If you use flatpak apps, you can run this to fix theme issue.
