feat(hardware): xe-aware GuC, class-based NPU detect, latestKernel + VM test
Harden the hardware-enablement broad seed for newer hardware: - xe vs i915: intel.guc emits the i915 param (i915.enable_guc=3), which the newer `xe` driver (Lunar Lake / Battlemage / Panther Lake, recent Xe GPUs) ignores — it enables GuC by default. hardware-db.sh now reads the in-use GPU driver (lspci -k) and writes `intel.guc = false` on xe hardware, so the toggle isn't a misleading no-op there. - NPU detection by PCI accelerator class [1200] (+ keywords), attributing the vendor, instead of a fixed device-ID list — so new NPUs (e.g. Panther Lake) are caught without a code change. Known IDs kept as a fallback/reference. - Kernel awareness: a nomarchy.hardware.latestKernel escape hatch (linuxPackages_latest) for very-new hardware whose drivers only just landed, and a build-time warning when npu.enable predates the shipped kernel (amdxdna needs 6.14+, intel_vpu wants recent). Downstream default is 6.18, which already carries amd-pstate + amdxdna; the reference host pins latest. - VM test (checks.hardware-toggles, pkgs.testers.runNixOSTest): boots a minimal VM with the toggles on and asserts the config landed — amd_pstate + i915.enable_guc in /proc/cmdline, fprintd.service present, pam_fprintd in /etc/pam.d/sudo. Passing. (Hardware behaviour still needs bare metal.) Docs: README + template note latestKernel; ROADMAP records the hardening. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
