fix(packaging): the same CAP_SYS_NICE broke KDE on FIVE channels, not one — Bazzite included
The Arch fix in the previous commit was incomplete. 0.26.0-1 granted the host CAP_SYS_NICE through
every Linux channel we ship, and each one breaks KWin identification the same way:

  * packaging/rpm/punktfunk.spec .......... %caps(cap_sys_nice=ep) in %files  <- Fedora AND Bazzite
                                            via rpm-ostree layering
  * packaging/bazzite/build-sysext.sh ..... setcap on the staging tree, recorded by mksquashfs
  * packaging/debian/build-deb.sh ......... setcap in the postinst
  * packaging/nix/nixos-module.nix ........ security.wrappers with capabilities = "cap_sys_nice=ep"
  * scripts/steamdeck/install.sh .......... setcap on $BIN, six lines after writing the .desktop
                                            whose Exec= it thereby voids

Bazzite was NOT a separate fault, as first reported here — it is this one. Verified by mounting the
published punktfunk-0.26.0-1-x86-64.raw: `getcap usr/bin/punktfunk-host` reports cap_sys_nice=ep,
stored as security.capability in the squashfs. The claim in packaging/arch/build-sysext.sh that
"file capabilities don't survive this squashfs path" is false and is corrected here; mksquashfs
records them, which is exactly why the image shipped one.

NixOS deserves its own note: a security.wrappers entry does not dodge the problem. The wrapper
raises the capability into its AMBIENT set before exec'ing the store binary, precisely so it
survives — which lands CAP_SYS_NICE in the exec'd process's permitted set and fails the readlink
identically to a file capability. ExecStart now points at the store path directly, which is also the
path packages.nix substitutes into the .desktop's Exec=, so the two finally agree.

Measured blast radius of holding a capability, same-uid reader, CachyOS kernel 7.1.6:

    /proc/PID/exe ....... EPERM   <- KWin's identification. Desktop sessions die.
    /proc/PID/root/* .... EPERM   <- xdg-desktop-portal reads .flatpak-info here to resolve an
                                     app id; the wlroots and Hyprland backends go through it
    /proc/PID/environ ... EPERM
    /proc/PID/cgroup .... OK
    /proc/PID/status .... OK
    /proc/PID/cmdline ... OK

Compositor backends, by exposure: KWin is broken outright (proven, field-confirmed). gamescope has
no identity gate and was never affected, which matches the field — only Desktop mode was reported.
Mutter drives Mutter's own D-Bus API, not the portal, and looks unaffected. wlroots and Hyprland go
through the ScreenCast portal, whose app-id resolution reads a path the capability blocks — a real
exposure, not something I reproduced end to end.

The sysext build now HARD-FAILS if a capability is staged, rather than trusting that the RPM payload
never carries one: a merged sysext's /usr is read-only squashfs, so a bad image cannot be repaired
on the box, and the spec was one %caps() away from baking one in again.

Docs corrected, because they advertised the capability as a feature:
  * docs-site running-as-a-service "GPU scheduling priority" — rewritten: the host carries no
    capability, why it must not, and how to clear a 0.26.0-1 install (Bazzite needs a new image)
  * docs-site configuration.md — the PYROWAVE_QUEUE_PRIORITY row no longer claims the packages grant it
  * packaging/bazzite/README.md — §6.5 still described the kde-desktop-setup.sh behaviour from
    before it stopped writing KWIN_WAYLAND_NO_PERMISSION_CHECKS and started REMOVING it; plus a
    note that 0.26.0-1 Desktop mode cannot be repaired in place
  * packaging/arch/README.md — the false "capabilities don't survive the sysext" line
  * CHANGELOG v0.26.0 PW1 — annotated with the 0.26.0-2 correction rather than rewritten, and the
    owed PyroWave-under-load A/B now says it needs a gamescope-only box

Verified: bash -n on all five changed shell files; nix-instantiate --parse on nixos-module.nix and
packages.nix; the published 0.26.0-1 sysext mounted and its capability read; getcap on an uncapped
file exits 0 with empty output, so the new build assertion cannot false-positive.

# Build a punktfunk-host .deb for Ubuntu/Debian hosts.
#
# Mirrors the Fedora RPM (../rpm/punktfunk.spec): the host binary + the uinput udev rule
# + the systemd *user* unit + headless session helpers + example config + the OpenAPI doc.
#
# Runtime Depends are computed by `dpkg-shlibdeps` from the binary's actual DT_NEEDED, NOT
# hand-listed: the binary pulls a large transitive lib closure (most of it via ffmpeg) and
# the exact soname package names (libavcodec62, libpipewire-0.3-0t64, …) drift across distro
# releases — shlibdeps tracks them automatically and pins them to whatever the BUILD distro
# ships. Build this inside the Ubuntu 26.04 rust-ci image so those names match the target
# boxes exactly. `--ignore-missing-info` drops libcuda.so.1 (the NVIDIA driver lib, linked via
# FFI): on a GPU-less builder it resolves to no package, and we must never hard-depend on a
# specific libnvidia-compute-<ver> anyway — NVENC/EGL come from the driver, out of band.
#
# BUNDLE_FFMPEG=1 (Ubuntu 24.04 LTS builds, ci/rust-ci-noble.Dockerfile): instead of hard-depending
# on the distro's libav* — which don't exist on 24.04 (it ships FFmpeg 6.1 / libavcodec60, the host
# needs 8 / libavcodec62) — copy a from-source FFmpeg into /usr/lib/punktfunk-host, repoint the
# binary's rpath there, and drop the libav*/libsw*/libpostproc sonames from the auto Depends. Set
# FFMPEG_PREFIX to that FFmpeg's install prefix (default /opt/ffmpeg, as the noble image sets it).
# See packaging/debian/README.md → "Ubuntu 24.04 LTS".

Description: Low-latency desktop/game streaming host (Moonlight + punktfunk/1)
punktfunk is a Linux-first, low-latency desktop and game streaming host. It speaks
the Moonlight/GameStream protocol (pair a stock Moonlight client) and its own native
punktfunk/1 protocol (GF(2^16) Leopard FEC + AES-GCM, mid-stream mode renegotiation,
client microphone passthrough). Each session gets a virtual output at the client's
exact resolution and refresh via a per-compositor backend (KWin, gamescope, Mutter,
Sway/wlroots), captured zero-copy (dmabuf -> CUDA -> NVENC). Input (mouse, keyboard,
gamepads) is injected back into the session.
.
NVENC + GPU EGL come from the NVIDIA driver (libnvidia-encode / libEGL_nvidia),
installed out of band. After install: add yourself to the 'input' group for virtual
gamepads, then enable the systemd user service punktfunk-host.
