Decouple the base installer's "run dotfiles TUI" choice from cloning the
dotfiles repo into /etc/skel and from the new user's default shell, so
declining both actually yields a bare system: no dotfiles, plain bash,
no DE, no display manager, and a working agetty login on tty1. Also add
an explicit toggle in the TUI for syncing the configured user's ~/.config
back into /etc/skel, previously unconditional.
Separately, core.sh's "svc" component unconditionally staged a greetd
config that launches Hyprland and enabled greetd.service — even when no
DE was selected, and even for DEs (GNOME, KDE Plasma, COSMIC, XFCE,
LXQt, Sway) that install their own display manager. That left greetd
racing the DE's native DM (or agetty, in the no-DE case) for tty1, and
Sway additionally got a greeter pointed at the wrong compositor. Gate
greetd on the DE selection and have every DE module disown getty/greetd
before enabling its own DM, matching the pattern hyprland.sh/niri.sh
already used; add a Sway-specific tuigreet config.
Add modules/lib/logging.sh with log(), skip(), warn(), err() helpers.
Source it in all 84 scripts (core, DEs, optional apps) and replace bare
echo calls with structured log messages. Add log file capture to install.sh.

Each script installs the DE meta-package, an appropriate display manager,
PipeWire audio, NetworkManager, Bluetooth, and Flatpak, then enables the
relevant services (sddm/gdm/lightdm/cosmic-greeter).
COSMIC falls back to sddm if cosmic-greeter is not installed.
tui-install.sh: DE menu expanded from 3 to 8 entries (height 20×70).
install-modules.sh: DEs added to checklist, summary, and dispatch so
they can be installed standalone on an existing system.
