Snapper: no question on btrfs; vendor the SysGuides scripts

- On btrfs, snapshots + zstd compression now just happen (no prompt);
  --snapper=no remains the explicit opt-out.
- Vendor scripts/snapper-*.sh + config/snapper.actions from
  SysGuides/sysguides-snapper-fedora (MIT, upstream 0a28eb4) into
  vendor/snapper/ and install from there — no runtime clone of an
  external repo, and no dependency on exec bits (fixes the
  './install.sh: Permission denied' failure seen on the test VM).
- grub-btrfs still cloned at runtime from Antynea/grub-btrfs with the
  Fedora config applied; everything else is local now.

# Full snapshot setup via the SysGuides installer (snapper + grub-btrfs +
# DNF5 pre/post snapshot actions). The installer re-validates btrfs itself.
# Snapshot setup using the vendored SysGuides scripts (vendor/snapper/).
# Original: https://github.com/SysGuides/sysguides-snapper-fedora (MIT).
# Vendored so we do not depend on that repo at runtime; upstream changes can
# be pulled deliberately, not accidentally.
# Exec bits are not relied on: scripts are invoked via `bash`.
