<!--
Categorise as a game so gamepolicyd (macOS 14+) treats this process
as game-related and does not deprioritise its encoder/capture threads
when the streamed game has Game Mode active. Sunshine itself cannot
*trigger* Game Mode because it is LSUIElement (no Dock icon, never
frontmost), but being recognised as game-eligible means the OS keeps
Sunshine on game-priority scheduling alongside the actual game it is
streaming, instead of throttling it as a generic background utility.
