element-web: Release and Nightly fail to start on Debian

Running Riot nightly on Debian results in Trace/breakpoint trap. This seems to be caused by some sort of issue with the sandbox, as running riot-desktop-nightly --no-sandbox works properly. Alternatively, doing sudo sysctl kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone=1 and then running riot-desktop-nightly works properly.

This looks like it may be https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/21309 Maybe we can try renaming the directory to /opt/Riot-Nightly rather than /opt/Riot Nightly.

This applies to Element (Riot) Desktop too

I think that’s enough evidence that this is believed fixed. Nightly should also be fixed in tomorrow’s build.
