Emma Thorpe d172157101 feat(nixos): physical-host services — power, bluetooth, OOM, firmware
- thermald on the x86 hosts (guarded; the Asahi MBP self-governs).
- T400 battery charge thresholds (75/80) via tp_smapi; tlp itself comes
  from the nixos-hardware profile.
- Bluetooth (bluez + powerOnBoot) and blueman on the laptops — the MBP
  already loads Apple BT firmware but bluez was never running.
- earlyoom + fwupd on the physical graphical hosts; zram on the Mac Pro.
