This seems to be more of a nice to have rather than a required package to get pipewire up and running no? |

You're not wrong, it's more of a nice to have, but I did notice less audio crackling when gaming or running intensive tasks using rtkit. |

PR Description:
I added the "rtkit" package to the installation when the user selects the PipeWire option.
After reading the PipeWire Documentation and checking the PipeWire journal logs, I found that this package helps provide a more complete and reliable PipeWire experience while also preventing warnings about missing packages and adding real-time scheduling support.
rtkit - adds real-time scheduling priority and silences "mod.rt: RTKit error" messages. This can help reduce audio stuttering, crackling, and dropouts when the system is under load.
