Keep the zram fallback until its replacement is installed

zram-generator creates no device at all when nothing configures one, so the
/etc copy is the only thing holding up swap until the vendor drop-in lands.
Removing it early costs a machine its zram entirely, not just its tuning.

The update pipeline installs packages before it runs migrations, so a packaged
machine always has the drop-in by then. A dev checkout does not: omarchy-update-dev
pulls migrations from a release the installed package has never seen, and no
ordering of the pipeline can produce a file that has not been built yet.
Checking for the drop-in is what makes the removal safe rather than well
sequenced.

The tests pinned the drop-in path to a fixture as well. Left at the real path
they would pass or fail on whether the machine running them happened to carry
the packaged copy.
