b85ae70ebd Stop pipefail from turning grep -q SIGPIPE exits into false negatives (#6614)
* Stop pipefail from turning grep -q SIGPIPE exits into false negatives

grep -q exits at the first match, and when the producer is still writing
it dies with SIGPIPE. Under pipefail that 141 becomes the pipeline's
status, so hardware checks like lspci | grep -q read as "not found" on
exactly the machines they target. The T2 defaults migration hit this and
silently skipped real T2 Macs (#6608).

Redirect grep to /dev/null instead of -q wherever a pipeline feeds grep
in a pipefail context, so grep reads all input and the producer never
gets killed. The install-time T2 checks aren't run under pipefail today
but are switched too, since they're the same detection line the issue
calls out.

* Re-run the T2 defaults migration its broken hardware check skipped

The SIGPIPE bug marked 1785944594 as applied without doing anything on
affected T2 Macs. The original migration is idempotent, so a fresh
migration can just source it now that the guard is fixed.

* Address Copilot review: fix OCR grep pipeline and prove the T2 repair

screen_contains piped tesseract into grep -Fqi under the acceptance
suite's pipefail, the same SIGPIPE false negative the rest of the branch
fixes. The T2 test's lspci stub now keeps writing past the pipe buffer
after the match so every scenario exercises the SIGPIPE case, and a new
case runs the rerun migration against fixtures a bitten install would
have.

David Heinemeier HanssonandClaude Opus 5 a466dcc04f Cover the XPS 16 with the XPS 14 speaker tuning
Reported to suit the XPS 16 as well, so the tuning now matches both machines and
the directory is named for the pair rather than the one model.

Gating moves from the DMI product name to the product SKU, which is what Dell keys
the Cirrus speaker firmware on -- 10280db9 for the XPS 14, 10280dba for the XPS 16
-- so it identifies the speaker hardware itself instead of a marketing name. SKUs
are compared as whole values, not substrings, so this cannot widen to the rest of
the XPS line the way a short product-name match would: product_family on these
machines is "Dell Laptops".

match_sku and match_dmi are now lists, letting one tuning name every model it
covers. A plain string still works as a single entry.

The measurements in tuning.conf were taken on the XPS 14 (0DB9). The XPS 16 is
covered on report rather than measurement, and tuning.conf and the graph both say
so, because the profile's bass lift and high-pass were fitted against one
machine's excursion and distortion limits.

David Heinemeier HanssonandClaude Opus 5 aa9f0c54c5 Add per-laptop speaker tunings, starting with the XPS 14
Laptop speakers ship voiced by the vendor's Windows DSP layer, which Linux does
not get. A tuning restores that as a PipeWire filter-chain in front of the
internal speaker sink, matched to the machine by DMI string and expected sink.

Adding a laptop is a directory under default/audio/tunings with two files and no
new code: matching is data. The XPS 14 DA14260 tuning included here was derived by
measuring the xps-audio-linux EasyEffects profile (MIT) and fitting a biquad chain
to it, so no impulse response or other upstream asset is redistributed. It measures
1.24 dB RMS against that reference, and matches its dynamic range within 0.1 LU --
the reference's multiband compressor turned out to contribute nothing, so a linear
chain replaces it. Bass Q is capped deliberately: a closer magnitude fit swung
group delay 31 ms across 63-80 Hz, which smears bass transients.

The graph runs as its own PipeWire client under its own config name rather than
loading into the audio daemon. The daemon only reads its config at startup, so a
daemon-loaded tuning could only be switched by restarting PipeWire -- which drops
every PulseAudio client's connection, and applications that do not reconnect
(Spotify) then have to be restarted by hand. Hosting it separately also contains
failure, since a malformed tuning breaks only that service.

Three things about the surrounding audio graph needed fixing for this to behave:

- Volume must live downstream of the tuning. omarchy-audio-output-sink is now the
  single definition of which sink an output's volume really uses, shared by the
  volume keys, the output switcher's OSD and the audio panel, so they cannot
  disagree. It resolves the current default output, which keeps it correct when
  headphones are selected while a tuning exists.
- The tuning's own output is a movable sink input, so rerouting "all streams" to a
  newly selected output would drag the processing onto headphones, or into the
  tuning's own sink, which is a cycle. It is pinned, and stream moves are limited
  to streams carrying an application.name.
- The physical sink a tuning fronts is not independently selectable, since picking
  it would only bypass the tuning, so it is kept out of the output list.

Applying happens at first-run, not finalize-user, because finalize-user also runs
in the ISO chroot where there is no audio server and nothing would retry.
