Add runtime status checker + headless/X11 docs; distro-support refinements

- status.sh: runtime health check (service state, boot wiring, display backend auto-detect, encoder, ports, web UI, /dev/uinput, pairing) ending in a g2g verdict or concrete TODO list

- docs: TROUBLESHOOTING §12 (headless graphical-session.target boot trap) + §13 (X11/NVENC path & stale wlr drop-in env conflict); ARCHITECTURE capture-backend comparison; FOLLOWUPS P3 (installer X11/Ubuntu support); README diagnostics pointer

- lib/{config,packages,permissions,service}.sh, files/sway-headless.service: in-progress Debian/Ubuntu + headless support refinements

## Headless capture backends: wlr vs X11/NVENC
The installer's headless mode assumes **wlr** (`capture = wlr`) on Hyprland —
that's the runtime flow diagrammed above. There is a second headless backend,
used on hosts that don't run Hyprland (e.g. Ubuntu) or that want a guaranteed
NVIDIA GL context for NVENC: **X11 capture of a headless Xorg**.
| | wlr path (installer default) | X11/NVENC path (manual) |
|---|---|---|
| Compositor | Hyprland (or sway-headless on a server) | headless Xorg on `:0` |
| `sunshine.conf` | `capture = wlr`, `output_name = HEADLESS-N` | `capture = x11`, `output_name = 0` |
| Display unit | the Hyprland/sway session | `xorg-headless.service` (user unit) |
| Per-client resize | yes — `global_prep_cmd` do/undo hooks | no — Xorg has a fixed `MetaModes` resolution |
| How the display is faked | wlroots headless output | NVIDIA `ConnectedMonitor` + `ModeValidation` (TwinView) |
| Service env drop-in | inherits Wayland env | pins `DISPLAY=:0`, `XDG_SESSION_TYPE=x11` |
The X11/NVENC path is the systemd-service form of the upstream "Remote SSH
Headless Setup" guide. It trades per-client resolution adaptation (the wlr
path's main feature) for a simpler, compositor-free capture that the NVIDIA
driver accelerates directly. Input injection is identical for both — `input`
group + `60-sunshine.rules` on `/dev/uinput`.
Both backends share the same boot caveat: on a headless host the Sunshine unit
must be wired into `default.target`, not `graphical-session.target`, or it
never auto-starts. See TROUBLESHOOTING.md §1213 for the drop-ins and the
alias-merge gotcha that lets a stale wlr drop-in poison the X11 environment.
