docs+test: ecosystem matrix, keybinds, limitations, recovery, smoke test

README: add a bread-ecosystem feature matrix, keyboard-shortcut reference,
a Known Limitations section (NVIDIA/Mesa, VM GPU accel, Secure Boot, btrfs
assumption), and a Recovery guide (snapshot rollback + GRUB/EFI repair from
the live ISO).

scripts/smoke-test.sh: read-only post-install validator — btrfs subvolumes,
snapper config, enabled services, bread bins on PATH, bos-settings, default
dotfiles, and the GRUB EFI artifacts. Exits non-zero on any failure.

## The bread ecosystem at a glance
| Tool | Role | Launch |
|------|------|--------|
| `bread` / `breadd` | Reactive automation daemon — normalises hardware/compositor signals into events dispatched to Lua modules | runs at login |
| `breadbar` | Top status bar (workspaces, clock, stats, tray) **and** the notification daemon | runs at login |
| `breadbox` | Application launcher | `SUPER+Space` |
| `breadpad` | Notes & reminders (AI-classified, optional CalDAV sync) | `SUPER+U` |
| `breadman` | Package-manager UI | `SUPER+M` |
| `breadcrumbs` | Wi-Fi profile state machine (location-aware) | CLI / BOS Settings |
| `bakery` | CLI package manager for the ecosystem | `bakery` |
| `bos-settings` | Unified GTK4 control panel for all of the above + snapshots + updates | `SUPER+,` |
## Keyboard shortcuts
`SUPER` is the Windows/Cmd key. Press **`SUPER+/`** at any time for this
cheatsheet in-session; first boot shows a short welcome (once).
| Keys | Action |
|------|--------|
| `SUPER+Return` | Terminal (kitty) |
| `SUPER+Space` | App launcher (breadbox) |
| `SUPER+E` / `SUPER+B` | Files (nautilus) / Browser (zen) |
| `SUPER+U` / `SUPER+M` | breadpad / breadman |
| `SUPER+,` / `SUPER+/` | BOS Settings / keybind cheatsheet |
| `SUPER+L` / `SUPER+N` | Lock / log out |
| `SUPER+Backspace` | Close window |
| `SUPER+F` / `SUPER+V` / `SUPER+T` | Fullscreen / float / toggle split |
| `SUPER+Shift+V` | Clipboard history |
| `SUPER+Tab` | Last window |
| `SUPER+Shift+S/C/P` | Screenshot region→file / region→clipboard / screen→file |
| `SUPER+arrows` | Move focus |
| `SUPER+Shift+h/j/k/l` | Move window |
| `SUPER+Shift+arrows` | Resize window |
| `SUPER+1..0` | Switch to workspace 110 |
| `SUPER+Shift+1..0` | Move window to workspace |
| `SUPER+[ / ]` | Previous / next workspace |
| `SUPER+left/right-drag` | Move / resize window with the mouse |
## Known limitations
- **GPUs**: ships the generic Mesa stack — AMD and Intel work out of the box.
The **NVIDIA proprietary driver is not included**; NVIDIA users must install
`nvidia`/`nvidia-utils` and set the usual Hyprland env vars after install.
- **Virtual machines**: Hyprland needs GPU acceleration to be smooth. Use
`virtio-vga-gl` + `-display gtk,gl=on` (virgl); plain software rendering is
noticeably laggy.
- **Wayland-first**: X11-only apps run through XWayland; a few may misbehave.
- **Secure Boot**: not configured. Boot with Secure Boot disabled, or enroll
your own keys. The installer writes both an NVRAM entry and the removable
`EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI` fallback.
- **Snapshots assume btrfs**: the snapper/grub-btrfs tooling expects the default
btrfs subvolume layout the installer creates.
## Recovery
**An update broke something (system still boots):** open BOS Settings →
Snapshots and roll back, or pick a pre-update snapshot from the **GRUB
“snapshots” submenu** at boot, then run `snapper rollback` from the booted
snapshot.
**The system won't boot (broken GRUB / lost EFI entry):**
1. Boot the BOS ISO and open a terminal (`SUPER+Return`).
2. Mount the installed root and EFI, then chroot:
```sh
mount -o subvol=@ /dev/sdXN /mnt
mount /dev/sdXP /mnt/boot/efi # the EFI partition
arch-chroot /mnt
```
3. Reinstall the bootloader (the same sequence the installer uses):
```sh
grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi --bootloader-id=BOS --recheck
grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi --removable --recheck
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
```
**Firmware shows “no boot device”:** select `EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI` from the
firmware boot menu — the installer always writes that removable fallback.
## Boot architecture notes
archiso keeps the kernel and initramfs outside the squashfs, so the installer
