instead of unconditionally grabbing access to KMS & input devices, we could talk to a session manager and implement session switching (using Ctrl+Alt+F3 for example), so people can test flutter-pi even on a device with a desktop environment.

There's a bunch of seat/session managers out there:

libseat looks kinda nice: https://git.sr.ht/~kennylevinsen/seatd

It's like a wrapper around all of them, though it's not yet available in debian bullseye, so I'd have to fetch & build it manually in the CMake file; but that's not really problematic I think.

@jwinarske Just pushed initial session switching support to the feature/compositor-ng branch. Needs libseat, so either you must have fairly recent ubuntu or you need to build it yourself locally

Still need to make sure I got all the implementation details correct though
