Bring the fingerprint affordance to the Quickshell lock screen and polkit dialog, matching what hyprlock did on master. Lock screen: render the md-fingerprint glyph inside the password field's right edge when a sensor is enrolled, reserving space so long passwords never run under it. Polkit dialog: show one method at a time. When a sensor is enrolled and the reader is reachable, the dialog is just the centered fingerprint icon (square card); the moment PAM asks for a password it switches to the password field. Detects pam_fprintd anywhere in the auth stack now that a gate can precede it. Lid awareness: a closed lid means the reader is unreachable, so both surfaces fall back to the password. polkit gets a pam_exec clamshell gate (auth [success=1 default=ignore] before pam_fprintd) so a shut lid drops straight to the password prompt instead of blocking on the reader for the pam_fprintd timeout; the lock screen hides the icon and skips scanning. The gate points at the fixed /usr/bin path the package always provides so it survives switching between package installs and dev-link. A migration adds the gate for existing fingerprint setups. New helper omarchy-hw-laptop-closed (pure lid state); omarchy-hw-clamshell now composes it with the external-monitor check. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
