…EN01) resolute (Ubuntu 26.04 LTS) just promoted to `supported` in armbian/build#9657, and apt.armbian.com#444 added apt.armbian.com coverage for the snap-shim workarounds + vendor desktop apps on resolute. Time to actually exercise the desktop install path on resolute in CI. Add `resolute` to RELEASE in every desktop test (10 of 11 had `bookworm:trixie:noble`; BUDG01 had only `trixie:noble`). Also drop `plucky` from KDEN01 — plucky is eos as of 2026-01-25, no point running tests against an eos release.
libu2f-udev was an Ubuntu/Debian transitional package that shipped udev rules for U2F security keys. The rules have since been absorbed into `udev` itself (and `libfido2-1` for newer FIDO2 flows), so resolute (Ubuntu 26.04 LTS) drops the transitional package from the archive entirely. Symptom on resolute desktop install: E: Package 'libu2f-udev' has no installation candidate Strip `- libu2f-udev` from each DE YAML's `resolute:` release block (8 files: cinnamon, enlightenment, gnome, i3-wm, kde-plasma, mate, xfce, xmonad). Other release blocks keep it — bookworm/trixie/ noble/jammy/forky/sid still ship the transitional package and the desktop install path on those releases continues to install it. Bianbu has a resolute block but never carried libu2f-udev, so no change there.

Restores U2F / FIDO2 security-key support (used by Chrome/Chromium and Firefox WebAuthn) on resolute. The previous commit dropped libu2f-udev because resolute no longer ships the transitional package; libfido2-1 is the modern stack that supersedes it and ships the same `/lib/udev/rules.d/70-u2f.rules` style rules needed for an unprivileged browser to talk to /dev/hidraw* of a plugged-in security key. Added to the resolute release block of the same 8 DE YAMLs touched in the previous commit (cinnamon, enlightenment, gnome, i3-wm, kde-plasma, mate, xfce, xmonad). Other releases keep libu2f-udev — those still ship the transitional package and the modern libfido2-1 isn't needed there. Bianbu untouched — it never carried libu2f-udev either.
