When debugging Xwayland-related issues, a common first step in debugging has been to ask the reporter to move their real Xwayland to /usr/bin/Xwayland.bin, and create a shell script starting Xwayland with extra arguments under the original /usr/bin/Xwayland location. Introducing a `WLR_XWAYLAND` environment variable makes this less invasive, by allowing the user to swap out Xwayland without resorting to global system changes (or source patches).
