theme.nix now resolves nomarchy.theme.iconThemePackage from a small
icon-pack registry (Papirus/Tela/Qogir/Reversal/Numix, matched by name
prefix). Default themes name Papirus-*, so the resolved package is the
plain papirus-icon-theme derivation — byte-identical closure, zero added
MB. Only when a theme's `icons` names a set from another pack is that
pack (and only it) symlinkJoined alongside papirus. stylix.nix consumes
it via mkDefault. Adding a pack is one iconPacks row.
Deliberately NOT shipping more packs by default: papirus alone is already
~1 GiB and each extra pack adds ~hundreds of MB, so variety is opt-in per
install (set `icons` in theme-state.json), not a default closure cost.
Documented in templates/downstream/home.nix + ROADMAP § Icon themes.
Verification: V1 (HM activationPackage builds). Eval proofs — default
resolves to plain papirus (zero delta); icons="Tela-dark" ->
nomarchy-icon-themes symlinkJoin (papirus+tela) with the name flowing,
without building tela; all 5 pack attrs exist in the pinned nixpkgs;
template-sot + option-docs + flake check green. No default visual change
(same papirus), so no screenshot; the opt-in render is downstream.

The complete-workstation gap: no PDF/image viewer shipped and nothing
set mime defaults, so 'open a photo' fell to GIMP. Two new default-on
toggles: nomarchy.viewers (programs.zathura — Stylix themes it, target
added to the explicit list — plus imv) and nomarchy.mime (mkDefault
xdg.mimeApps: pdf→zathura, image→imv, av→mpv, text→code, dir→thunar;
html/http(s)→firefox as inert entries that only activate when a
browser is installed — the ship-a-browser Decision stays open, now
smaller). Associations for absent apps are skipped by GIO, so the
whole thing degrades as the user curates the suite. Deviation from
the backlog text: viewers are a module toggle, not template package
lines — zathura's theming needs its HM module (the real-config
boundary of the toggle discipline).
V1: template-home generation asserted — mimeapps.list rendered, themed
zathurarc, binaries in home-path. V3 open-a-file smoke queued.

Stylix set polarity and the GTK theme but not the XDG portal's
org.freedesktop.appearance color-scheme, which GTK4/libadwaita and Qt6
apps actually read to choose dark vs light — so a light theme could still
render those apps dark (and vice-versa).
Set dconf org/gnome/desktop/interface color-scheme to
prefer-light/prefer-dark from theme.mode in stylix.nix.
xdg-desktop-portal-gtk already ships and programs.dconf is on system-side,
so the portal exposes it to apps.
Also log two branding follow-ups from the legacy assets: fastfetch ASCII
logo (logo.txt) and the Nomarchy.ttf glyph for the Waybar menu button.

Ships papirus-icon-theme and resolves an icon-theme name once in
theme.nix → nomarchy.theme.iconTheme: the JSON's optional `icons` field,
else Papirus-Dark/Light picked by `mode`. That single value feeds:
- Stylix `stylix.icons` → gtk.iconTheme (Thunar and GTK apps)
- rofi `show-icons` + `icon-theme` (the launcher now shows app icons)
A preset or theme-state.json can set `icons` to any theme in the icon
package to override per theme.
Verified: flake check green; iconTheme resolves Papirus-Dark for
tokyo-night and Papirus-Light for summer-day; gtk.enable true with
gtk.iconTheme.name set; papirus in home.packages and the live ISO
closure; rofi config.rasi carries icon-theme + show-icons:true. The
rendered icons need a real session to see.

Full replacement of the previous iteration, rebuilt around three ideas:
- Pure evaluation: theme-state.json lives inside the flake and is read
via the nomarchy.stateFile option — no --impure, ever.
- All-Home-Manager theming: `nomarchy-theme-sync apply` writes the JSON
and runs `home-manager switch`; every theme change is one atomic,
rollbackable generation. Wallpaper (swww) is the sole runtime piece.
- Flat, downstream-first layout: modules/{nixos,home} with one
options.nix each, exported as nixosModules/homeModules + overlay +
flake template; system (nixos-rebuild) and desktop (home-manager
switch) rebuild paths are fully split.
Ships 21 themes imported from the previous iteration (palettes,
wallpapers, btop themes, six whole-swap Waybar identities), Stylix for
the GTK/Qt/cursor long tail, a live ISO target with offline theme
switching, and docs/TESTING.md with the QEMU verification workflow.
