feat(headless-kde): reliable bring-up — readiness probe, fix portal ordering/env (roadmap #1 phase 1)
ci / rust (push) Has been cancelled

Headless KDE startup was a chain of timing-sensitive handoffs gated by a blind `sleep 2`,
the dominant source of black screens. Phase-1 fixes:

- New `punktfunk-host probe-compositor` subcommand: exits 0 iff the detected compositor is
  up AND ready to create a virtual output now. KWin gets a real check (connect + registry
  roundtrip + the privileged zkde_screencast global must be advertised — what the backend
  needs); gamescope/Mutter/wlroots create on demand so the probe just confirms Linux.
  (vdisplay::probe dispatcher + kwin::probe; reuses kwin.rs's existing roundtrip path.)
- run-headless-kde.sh: replace `sleep 2` with an active readiness wait (poll probe-compositor
  until ready, 30s deadline, and bail with kwin's log if kwin_wayland exits during init).
  Move the portal restart to AFTER readiness, and precede it with `systemctl --user
  import-environment` + `dbus-update-activation-environment` (the missing env import — the
  Sway script does this; without it a restarted portal inherits a stale/empty WAYLAND_DISPLAY,
  which is the "streams but eats no input/audio" failure). kwin's stderr → a log file.

Validated: probe-compositor exits 0 "Kwin ready" against the live session, exit 1 with a
clear diagnostic when the compositor is absent. 114 tests green, clippy/fmt clean.
