Vorta doesn't start on macOS Big Sur after upgrade to 0.10.3 (0.10.2 works)

Description

After upgrading to Vorta 0.10.3 on macOS Big Sur, Vorta no longer starts.

It looks related to Qt6 build symbols/versions, though I didn't see any mention of Qt6 changes in 0.10.3 specifically. Reverting to Vorta 0.10.2 works.

Initially upgraded via homebrew (which lists support for back to Mojave), then reverted to 0.10.2 via the release binary .dmg. Also confirmed that 0.10.3 via the .dmg has the same issue.
