Tommaso Bianchi f14d31d956 scripts/gui-session.sh: bring the headless GUI up without clicking blind
The relaunch sequence was an ad-hoc pile of docker exec one-liners, and it
had a real bug: it dismissed the first-run dialogs by computing the
titlebar close box from `xdotool getwindowgeometry --shell` and clicking
it. When the dialog had already closed, that eval left the geometry
variables stale or empty, the click landed at a garbage coordinate, and it
kept hitting the Sketch button in the toolbar underneath — so the app came
up in sketch mode with a stray Sketch feature that then had to be
cancelled by hand. Three times in one session.

The fix is not a different mechanism. `xdotool windowclose` looks cleaner
and KILLS THE APP: it destroys the GdkWindow out from under the dialog and
the process dies with "GdkWindow unexpectedly destroyed", three
GLib-GObject criticals and a segfault. Measured, not guessed — that is
what the first version of this script did. Escape does not close the Setup
Wizard either, which is why it needs handling at all. So the titlebar
click stays, and what changes is that it refuses to click geometry it has
not validated: the window id is re-resolved immediately before, all four
geometry variables are unset first and must come back numeric, and the
computed point must be inside the screen. Any of those failing logs why
and clicks nothing.

Two further honesty fixes in the status output, both caught by reading it
rather than by it failing: app_pid skipped nothing, so with a container
full of <defunct> instances it printed a dead pid as though the session
were healthy — it now walks /proc/<pid>/stat and ignores zombies. And a
container without x11vnc reported "vnc: DOWN" as if something had broken,
when nothing was ever installed; it now says so, and does not try to start
what is not there.

Also replaces the fixed post-launch sleep with a wait for the main window,
because cold starts under software GL vary by a lot, and adds --status for
diagnosis: "no windows but the desktop is up" means the app died, "cannot
connect at all" means the desktop did. That distinction cost real time to
work out by hand.

Verified on both containers: one run each, wizard closed on validated
geometry, no stray sketch mode, live pid reported, and the app still up.
