Recommend to use services.xserver.dpi option instead. Mention in the
documentation that it's a sledgehammer approach and monitor settings should be
used instead.
Also don't set DPI in fontconfig settings; fontconfig should use Xft settings
by default so let's not override one value in multiple places. For example,
user now can set DPI via ~/.Xresources properly.

It looks like it can finally be removed: the `Failed to open gpu
'/dev/dri/card0'` error is gone and the nixosTests.gnome test is
passing (checked 4 times in a row).
GDM 40.1 switched from storing X11 sessions in the "XSession" property
on AccountService to "Session" with a "x11" "SessionType".
For compatibility reasons, we should set both, since AccountService
doesn't seem to provide the compatibility for us.
(It was requested by them.)
I left one case due to fetching from their personal repo:
pkgs/desktops/pantheon/desktop/extra-elementary-contracts/default.nix
Instead of treating the sddm config a wall of text that doesn't allow us
to override anything, turn it into an attribute set.
We dump `extraConfig` and instead introduce `settings` that is merged
with the module defaults to provide the final configuration.
There is some additional noise in here due to nixpkgs-fmt.
This partially reverts bf3d3dd19b.
I don't know why we weren't getting a default logfile back then but Xorg
definitely provides one now ($XDG_DATA_HOME for regular users and /var/log for
root, see `man Xorg`)
Currently lxqt is a desktop environment that's compiled against qt514.
To avoid possible issues (#101369), we (hopefully) use the same qt
version as the desktop environment at hand. LXQT should move to qt515,
and for the long term the correct qt version should be inherited by the
sddm module.
In https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/100119 pantheon's greeter
has g-s-d running which allows brightness controls via pkexec.
This is changed in newer versions of g-s-d (pantheon uses a fork currently),
but whenever brightness is changed with a shell of `shadow` we get
```
Oct 10 23:51:44 kirXps pkexec[18722]: lightdm: Executing command [USER=root] [TTY=unknown] [CWD=/var/lib/lightdm] [COMMAND=/run/current-system/sw/bin/elementary-settings-daemon/gsd-backlight-helper /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0/card0-eDP-1/intel_backlight 65587]
```
I'm not sure this should be strictly needed, so we should try to
revert later on when pantheon's g-s-d is updated.
To avoid extra flickering on boot, we want GDM to tell Plymouth to
quit after GDM takes control of the display. That configuration was
reverted in #71065 because it caused ‘nixos-rebuild switch’ to bring
down the graphical session. The reason was that if multi-user.target
wants plymouth-quit.service which conflicts display-manager.service,
then when ‘nixos-rebuild switch’ starts multi-user.target,
display-manager.service is stopped so plymouth-quit.service can be
started. We avoid this problem by removing WantedBy:
multi-user.target from plymouth-quit.service.

This reverts commit 3cd2b59b8c.
It created infinite recursion when using LXQt, since lxqt module
uses `config.system.path` in `services.xserver.desktopManager.session`.
`config.system.path` is a `buildEnv` that depends on `environment.systemPackages`.
This removes the `services.dbus.socketActivated` and
`services.xserver.startDbusSession` options. Instead the user D-Bus
session is always socket activated.
