Session prereqs: libvirt group membership when libvirt is installed
The error CHANGED on the VM: 'no polkit agent' -> 'access denied by policy' — the agent unit works; polkit now denies because the user is not in the libvirt group (fresh run without picking QEMU from the menu, or no re-login after the pick). install_session_prereqs now adds the user to the libvirt group whenever libvirt is installed (idempotent via id -nG check), decoupled from the advanced-menu choice. Applies after re-login.
