Go back to stock libfprint now that 1.94.100 ships FocalTech MOC

libfprint-git only existed to carry the focaltech_moc driver and the
FocalTech FT9349 (2808:a97a) ID ahead of a release. libfprint 1.94.100
has both and is in the Arch repos, so fingerprint setup installs stock
libfprint again and a migration swaps existing installs back.
