In my previous PR (#87243) I used the wrong upstream artifact for
the runtime. After reading the documentation in the
ValveSoftware/steam-runtime repo, I now know that the steam-runtime
tarball is what I actually wanted.

I also used 'diff' to compare the various artifacts with the old runtime
this package used before, and the steam-runtime one is certainly the
closest.

Most importantly, switching to the right steam-runtime package
reportedly fixes issues for other users (fixes #90229).

This also entirely removes the amd64/i386 split from runtime.nix because
the upstream package bundles both together, and if that's how upstream
wants to distribute this, it seems best to follow their lead.

Motivation for this change

Fixes an issue reported in #90229

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

cc @hrdinka since you helped with the last PR. Apologies for my mistake here 馃槄
