desktop: add an xfce-x11 boot specialisation

Browse source 
A second boot entry with Xfce on Xorg via LightDM, matching the
desktop where another.im's typing jitter shows up (2026-10-19), to
reproduce it here. GDM in GNOME 50 no longer starts Xorg sessions,
hence LightDM. The default entry is untouched.

# compositing, logged in through LightDM. Only the display manager and the
