This currently switches the qt backend to pyqt6 for making napari v7 GUI launch work! (more context in napari/napari#8808)

PS. I still need to check micro-sam's compatibility with the v7 updates, that'll be the next step!

Okay, the conda platform selector trick does not work for Windows like the way I did. Hmm interesting!

Okay, it's indeed true that macOS and Windows don't like / have qt6-wayland package compatibility at all (makes it a bit more difficult to generalize).

PS. I think the last resort (an obvious solution) might be to ask users to install micro-sam by adding qt6-wayland as an additional dependency by hand!
