Describe the bug

When installing second LiveContainter via menu, enabling game category or game mode support does not create correct .plist entries.

Game mode category toggle is expected to add LSSupportsGameMode key set to "Yes"
Game category toggle is expected to set LSApplicationCategoryType key to public.app-category.games

Currently:
Game mode toggle does not change anything in .plist:

Category toggle sets LSApplicationCategoryType to public.app-category.education:

Combining toggles only set LSApplicationCategoryType to public.app-category.education

Instructions to reproduce

Go to Settings menu and tap "Install Another LiveContainer".
In "Multiple LiveContainers" menu toggle on "Set Category as Game" and/or "Allow Game Mode".
Tap "Continue" and "Save to Files"
Check Info.plist file in saved .ipa file

What version of LiveContainer and iOS are you using?

main/9182b26

Verify steps

I downloaded LiveContainer from releases / actions section or LiveContainer's AltStore source.
I have the latest LiveContainer.
I installed LiveContainer through AltStore/SideStore/TrollStore or I'm confident that I signed LiveContainer correctly with all required entitlements.
