Update description:

Improve GStreamer multimedia playback across the board with improved codec selection logic, better handling of latency, and improving frame discard to avoid audio/video desynchronization, among other fixes.

Disable threaded rendering in GTK4 builds by default, as it was causing crashes.
Fix MediaSession API not showing artwork images.
Fix MediaSession MPRIS usage when running inside a Flatpak sandbox.
Fix input element controls to correctly scale when applying a zoom factor different than the default.
Fix leakage of Web processes in certain situations.
Fix several crashes and rendering issues.
