awkawbandClaude Sonnet 5 bd112541e5 nixos-module: use playwright's chromium-headless-shell instead of pkgs.chromium for PDF generation
snappdf only ever shells out to `$SNAPPDF_CHROMIUM_PATH --headless --print-to-pdf=...`,
so the full browser UI/GPU stack pkgs.chromium ships is unnecessary. Google's official
"Chrome for Testing" headless-only build (packaged by nixpkgs' playwright-driver,
selected via `browsers.override` with every other browser/ffmpeg disabled) does the
same job for a ~1.45GB smaller closure (431MB vs 1.88GB), needs no allowUnfree, and
PDF generation is noticeably faster in the VM test (~2.5s vs ~10s per request).

Drops the now-unnecessary allowUnfree wiring from the interactive VM and automated
test configs, which existed solely to build pkgs.chromium.

# boots with panic_on_oom - so it's not a graceful slowdown, the whole VM goes down. Confirmed by
# reproducing a "logo upload hangs" report this way: at the 1024MB default, even a couple of
# concurrent PDF-generation requests triggered `redis-server invoked oom-killer` and a kernel
# panic. 2 cores / 2560MB comfortably handles 2 concurrent PDF generations alongside normal
# traffic (verified: ~1.4GB still free afterward); a deliberate flood of many concurrent PDF
# requests can still exhaust even this, since each is a full chromium instance - if that's a
# concern for your deployment, consider capping `phpfpm.settings."pm.max_children"` below its
# default of 8, or provisioning more RAM.
