The Frame controllers' laser comes from their render model's tip, 40
degrees below the controller pose's forward axis. ft-screens tested rays
along the pose, so a controller's laser near a screen's controls didn't
reveal them, and dragging the resize tab or the roll knob with a
controller followed the wrong point. Rays now start from the tip.

install.sh: a comment with an apostrophe inside a single-quoted command
(from the distrobox pin) ended the quote and broke the script at step 1.
The VR launcher started the desktop with the Steam client's environment,
including LD_LIBRARY_PATH to Steam's runtime, whose libavcodec has no
H.264 decoder: VLC in the desktop couldn't play most videos. The session
script now drops the client's variables before starting anything, so apps
use the system's libraries and codecs.
The README and the installer now recommend setting Steam's Sleep after
(When Plugged In and Idle) to Never; Steam suspends the Frame after an
hour otherwise, even while charging.

The README drops the bold headlines on every item and reads as prose. The
reference is brought up to date and loses its bold labels. The design doc
is reorganized by topic instead of as a dated work log, keeping the
technical findings. The setup guide uses subheadings for troubleshooting.

With the pointer released, the helper still listed overlays by running
vrcmd every second, a new SteamVR client each time, which kept SteamVR
from going to standby. The list now pauses while the pointer is off.
Starting the dev container from one of our services made that service own
it, so stopping the service stopped the container and the desktop's
compositor with it. scripts/container-up.sh starts the container in a
systemd scope of its own before every distrobox enter.

Several KDE Plasma screens floating in SteamVR, each a real monitor of any
resolution and shape, shown by our own compositor (ft-screens), with a
layout, wrist pinning, and visibility modes; a Bluetooth mouse that drives
all of SteamVR as a room-anchored 3D pointer (input relay, ft-pointer
helper, ft_pointer SteamVR driver); two settings apps; and Bluetooth LE
fixes. Installs on the headset with ./install.sh.
