UPDATE: To test whether libnvidia-egl-wayland1 was the ultimate source
of this issue, I switched back to the NVIDIA 535 drivers (which usually
works correctly) but I also manually installed the libnvidia-egl-
wayland1 & libnvidia-egl-wayland1:i386 packages from the Terminal.

After restarting into Wayland, the issue appeared again (just like with
the newest NVIDIA 550.107.02 package) so my hypothesis was correct.
Launching libadwaita apps failed with the same error messages as I
mentioned earlier, and the Settings > About "Graphics" field showed the
"NVIDIA" GPU being used (not "Mesa Intel" as it previously did when
everything worked correctly): https://i.imgur.com/5MpmGMJ.png

As soon as I removed only the libnvidia-egl-wayland1 & libnvidia-egl-
wayland1:i386 packages and rebooted, libadwaita apps launched normally
again and the Settings > About "Graphics" field showed "Mesa Intel"
(instead of "NVIDIA"): https://i.imgur.com/ezCIwOa.png

As a result, I can confirm that the presence of libnvidia-egl-wayland1
changes this behaviour (even with the NVIDIA 535 drivers) and causes
this issue.

After looking through the debian/changelog for the nvidia-graphics-
drivers-550 source in jammy, I found that "libnvidia-egl-wayland1" was
added as a dependency for "libnvidia-gl-550" in version
550.100-0ubuntu0.22.04.2 of this package. This lines up with my
experience testing the system's behaviour with different versions of the
NVIDIA 550 drivers.

If the maintainer of the nvidia-graphics-drivers-550 source package
could remove "libnvidia-egl-wayland1" as a dependency for the
"libnvidia-gl-550" package in jammy (as was the case before), this issue
should probably be resolved.

I believe that's the fix.
