gtksettings: align Input tab labels to uniform 175px width; autostart: add 12s delay

Browse Source 
All rows in the Input tab (labeled, key_field, url_field, sound_field) now share
a single LW=175 label width, eliminating the jagged left edge on input fields.
Added X-GNOME-Autostart-Delay=12 to the .desktop entry so gnome-shell, AT-SPI,
and the input stack are fully initialised before Blitztext connects — fixes the
session crash on first login after installation.
