With the next builds that pick up this change, chromium will still
default to XWayland, but users can change this setting at
chrome://flags/#ozone-platform-hint to try out native Wayland support.

Title:
  [snap] Chromium has Wayland support disabled

Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Since v87 Chromium ships with support for Ozone/Wayland:
  https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Chrome-87-Ozone-Try-Again.

  This build flag is not disabled in dev (edge) channel build, so it should be 
possible to run Chromium with flags
    --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland.

  This does not work due to environment variable DISABLE_WAYLAND set to 1 here:
