In order to be able to test the package, we need to build the image outside of a Docker container. Both snap and flatpak cannot run correctly inside a Docker container. So, stop using Gitlab to build the flatpak bundle. Signed-off-by: Claudio André <dev@claudioandre.slmail.me>

Flatpak and snap don't work inside a Docker container. Gitlab runners are based on Docker (in our case).
So, it's unclear how long we'll be able to build using Gitlab. This PR prepares us to face this future.
For our future, farewell Gitlab.
