ci / rust (push) Has been cancelled
A full Plasma login starts several pieces our bare headless session was missing, which
surfaced as three separate failures while streaming the KDE desktop:
- Steam (and other X11 apps) failed "can't open display": Xwayland runs, but KWin only
sets DISPLAY for its own children — apps launched via the plasma menu / D-Bus activation
never saw it. Detect the Xwayland display after KWin is ready and export it into the
systemd/D-Bus activation environment.
- Discover / PackageKit couldn't install apps: polkitd (the policy engine) was running but
no authentication *agent* (the prompt) was — so privileged installs got no authorization.
Start polkit-kde-authentication-agent-1 (forcing the Qt Wayland platform, or it exits).
- The streamed desktop showed app windows but no wallpaper/panels: plasmashell had crashed
and the old unsupervised `plasmashell &` never brought it back. Supervise it — restart for
as long as KWin lives, so the desktop shell self-heals.
Validated live on this box: DISPLAY=:0 now in the --user environment (xdpyinfo on :0 works),
the polkit agent registers ("Listener online"), and plasmashell stays up under the supervisor.
