Bug Description

Xournal++ on flatpak should save each new unsaved file to a different folder inside the cache autosave directory. However, they all save to 2.autosave.xopp, overwriting each other and leaving only the last autosaved file.

Expected Behaviour

Each new file should autosave with a unique filename, even on flatpak.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create and write on a new, unsaved Xournal++ file, and wait until an autosave is created in ~/.var/app/com.github.xournalpp.xournalpp/autosaves/.autosaves.xopp
2. Create a second unsaved file and wait until that file is autosaved
3. The autosave from the second file will overwrite the autosave from the first file

Additional Context

To my understanding, this is because Flatpak apps run in an isolated namespace, and Xournal++ always runs inside the isolated namespace with a PID of 2 , so all autosaves of new files are saved to 2.autosave.xopp
