Adds a discover-logging/ build step that fetches the plasma-discover
source, instruments PKTransaction.cpp with qWarning calls at key points
(trigger, statusChanged, progressChanged, cleanup, errorFound,
installFile) to diagnose hanging .deb installs, then rebuilds and
reinstalls the patched packagekit-backend.so.
Also installs Firefox via the Mozilla apt repo (Ubuntu 24.04 ships
Firefox as a snap which doesn't work in the container).

kded5 was activating org.bluez.obex in a tight loop (no BT hardware in
container), spawning thousands of obexd threads until the libpod scope hit
its TasksMax=9286 systemd default — causing fork failures and a 502.
- vnc-desktop/Dockerfile: purge bluez/bluez-obexd and delete D-Bus service
activation files so kded5 can't trigger the loop
- linux.nix: machine.slice TasksMax=infinity so the libpod scope ceiling
can't be hit by legitimate KDE thread counts
- linux.nix: containers.conf pids_limit=0 (unlimited) to let podman pass
TasksMax=infinity to new container scopes
pids.current went from 9286 (exhausted) to 159 after the fix.

Replace openbox with kde-plasma-desktop + konsole. Build the container
image locally via a oneshot systemd service (build-vnc-image) that runs
before arion-vnc-desktop on each boot. Nix hashes the Dockerfile and
start.sh at eval time so the build is skipped when nothing changed.
No registry push/pull required.

Custom Podman image (forge.quinefoundation.com/ironmagma/vnc-desktop) running
TigerVNC + noVNC + openbox, proxied via nginx with ACME TLS and basic auth.
Also switches all arion projects from docker to podman backend.
