feat: "Gaming on NVIDIA" replaces the SteamOS conversion on NVIDIA PCs
...
gamescope's gaming mode shows a corrupted picture on NVIDIA (NVIDIA bug 5240452), also nested in KDE and in a KWin-only
session. With an NVIDIA GPU the conversion (gaming, boot, single, glyphs) is hidden unless already on, and nvidia takes its
place: Steam installed when missing and started at login on the Plasma desktop (user unit), with the sub-option bigpicture
for Big Picture or the normal window. The kernel parameters and early NVIDIA modules (RTX 20 series or newer) are kept as
part of it. tests/nvidia-test.sh covers the component and the menu rules against a fake GPU.

fix: NVIDIA fix on Limine edits the existing cmdline line; early modules only when every kernel has them
...
Found by running it in a VM: the appended += line became literal text on the
kernel command line, and a kernel without the modules made limine-mkinitcpio
skip its boot entry.

systemctl --user goes through user_systemctl, which only changes unit files
without a session; the theme lets Plasma build Vapor's layout at the first
login when the layout is still /etc/skel's; a one-time first-login autostart
sets up single user's launcher and opens the app.

feat: Power-off fix as its own sub-option, drop the kernel pin, feature versions
...
The power-off fix becomes an opt-out sub-option of Steam Machine
support. The kernel pin is no longer offered: an existing pin (and HDMI
refresh boost, which needs it) is unticked so a normal run removes it.
Components record a feature version on each successful run; installs
with an older version are ticked and updated, and new default
sub-options are ticked where their parent is on.

feat: Power-off fix for the Steam Machine; the kernel pin is optional
...
Kernels >= 7.2 keep the firmware's S4/S5 wake bit on GPIO pin 18, so the
Steam Machine starts again right after powering off. Steam Machine
support now builds a DKMS module (patches/steamify-fremont-poweroff.c)
that clears it before power-off, for every kernel. The kernel pin is no
longer ticked by default. Module sources and patches move to patches/,
embedded by the single-file build.
