Cursor bug in gtk4-demo-application

SUMMARY
When running a GTK application in XWayland, through GDK_BACKEND=x11, the cursor doesn't always correctly switch between different shapes when hovering different widgets


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. GDK_BACKEND=x11 gtk4-demo-application
2. Hover the textbox, then hover the toolbar, repeat.

OBSERVED RESULT
Sometimes the cursor shape is a pointer while hovering the textbox, or a I-beam while hovering the toolbar.

EXPECTED RESULT
The cursor always switches to I-beam when entering the textbox, and switches back to pointer when leaving the textbox.
