rope 7791d3d9e5 desktop: replace GNOME with XFCE fallback; fix keyring popup
Remove GNOME DE (gnome-keyring, tracker, extensions, shell dconf
settings) and replace with a lightweight XFCE fallback session so
ly offers an alternative if Hyprland fails after an update. Add
nautilus explicitly as a standalone package. Eliminates the keyring
unlock prompt that appeared in Nautilus on Hyprland sessions.
