`getty@tty2` masked, and its autologin is written to `/etc/ly/config.ini`; set `session`
to the target session's `.desktop` basename (sway and hyprland resolve automatically).
When `autologin` names a user, the matching display manager is configured to log that user in without a
password prompt. `session` is resolved automatically per environment when left empty (gdm picks its default,
