Ryan Hughes 246eea9620 Fix Hermes Desktop keyring detection on Hyprland
Default Electron to the gnome-libsecret password store so Hermes can use GNOME Keyring for secure remote tokens. Declare libsecret as a runtime dependency.

# Maintainer: David Heinemeier Hansson <david@hey.com>
# Nous builds Hermes Desktop for macOS and Windows only -- their download page
# offers a .dmg and an .exe and tells Linux users to install from a terminal --
# so there is no vendor binary to repackage. Their electron-builder config does
# carry a Linux target, though, and it works; this builds it.
#
# The app only runs against a Hermes runtime built from its own commit, so it
# provisions one itself under ~/.hermes on first launch and the package stays
# on the newest tag. Pairing it with the mise CLI instead was tried and does
# not work: PyPI trails the tags, and the version gap fails the readiness probe
# with a 401. Pinning back to the tag behind PyPI's release does not rescue it
# either -- v2026.7.20's desktop hangs after "backend is ready" without ever
# opening a window, against its own matching runtime.
#
# The app is only a shell: it runs `hermes serve` against a Hermes CLI it does
# not ship, and clones its own copy with the upstream install script when it
# finds none. /usr/bin/hermes-desktop heads that off. See hermes-desktop.sh.
