Shouldn't this be controlled in the SkiaHostBuilder instead? i.e.

SkiaHostBuilder.Create()
				...
				.UseX11()
				.UseLinuxFrameBuffer()

should use X11 if available and fall back to FB, while

SkiaHostBuilder.Create()
				...
				.UseLinuxFrameBuffer()
				.UseX11()

should do the opposite, no?
