The decision which type of user session (x or wayland) will be started is
based on the path of the .desktop file that's requested: If the parent
folder is called wayland-sessions, gdm starts a wayland user session.
Otherwise a x user session.

Our xserver module generates these files as
/nix/store/<hash>-desktops/<name>.desktop, so it should always start a x
user session.
