feat(installer): review-then-edit loop with field-level re-prompt

Previously the review screen only offered Confirm/Abort, so a typo or
wrong-disk choice meant aborting the whole run and starting over (or
hand-editing /tmp/nomarchy-install.state.sh). On --resume the situation
was worse: every prompt re-runs (each short-circuits when its var is
set), the user lands on a review they can't change.

review_configuration() now offers Continue / Edit a field / Abort. Edit
opens a multi-select of every saved field; chosen fields clear and the
next loop iteration in main() re-prompts only those. The LUKS passphrase
short-circuits when already set, so editing other fields doesn't
re-prompt for it.

Net flow change:
- Fresh install: same prompts, then review with Edit option (typo fixes
  without restarting).
- --resume: state loads, every prompt skips (vars set), lands straight on
  review — exactly what the roadmap entry called for.

Verified via `bash -n`. Live VM dry-run not exercised in this session.

- **Gaming — declarative flathub remote.** `services.flatpak.enable` doesn't ship a declarative remote API in nixpkgs. Either add the `flatpak-managed-install` overlay, write a one-shot systemd unit that runs `flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub …`, or surface the manual step in `nomarchy-welcome`.
- **First-run welcome wizard.** Extend `nomarchy-welcome` from a one-shot greeter into a guided picker: theme, panel position, monospace font, "what's a sane home.nix to start with?". Runs once, persists "done" in `state.json`.
- **Plymouth theme variants per palette.** Currently one Plymouth theme; could template per-palette so the boot splash matches the active theme.
- **Installer pre-flight resume polish.** If the user Ctrl-Cs mid-install and runs `--resume`, re-show the review screen before re-prompting for any unsaved fields.

- _2026-04-26_ — Installer review-then-edit flow (`installer/install.sh`). Review screen now offers Continue / Edit a field / Abort. Edit opens a multi-select of saved fields; chosen fields clear and the next loop iteration re-prompts only those. Benefits both fresh installs (typo fixes without abort+restart) and `--resume` (lands on review immediately, since the loaded vars short-circuit each prompt). LUKS passphrase is held in memory across loop iterations so re-edits don't re-ask for it.

Flathub remote and Hyprland window-rule split into separate Next-column rows.

New `nomarchy.system.accessibility.{enable,cursorSize}` options (opt-in, default off — accessibility isn't a hardware-derived signal). Enables `services.gnome.at-spi2-core`, installs Orca, and sets `XCURSOR_SIZE=32` (configurable). Hyprland-side companion (key-repeat slowdown, Orca keybinding, high-contrast palette) split into a new Next-column row.
