Back out the entire "choose terminal-only vs KDE at boot" work. The first
attempt (default multi-user.target + on-demand desktop) locked mibook out —
it is WiFi-only with credentials in KWallet, so a headless boot has no
network and no SSH. The follow-up specialisation redesign is no longer
wanted either.

mibook returns to plain always-KDE boot (the pre-feature baseline):

  • machines/mibook/configuration.nix: drop specialisation.terminal and the
    NetworkManager-wait-online override.
  • machines/mibook/environments.nix: drop kde-desktop.startOnBoot.
  • modules/environments/kde-desktop/default.nix: drop the startOnBoot option.
  • remove the boot-desktop-choice design spec.
