Installs the Google Chrome browser cross-distro as a runnable binary at a stable path.
Google Chrome browser package. Cross-distro: pulls from Google’s
direct RPM repo on Fedora, the AUR on Arch/CachyOS. Lands the
google-chrome-stable binary plus its desktop entry, and best-effort
registers it as the default web browser via xdg-settings. No CDP
scaffolding, no supervisord — for headless container CDP automation,
compose /charly-selkies:chrome-cdp on top. Verifiable: the binary
exists at a fixed path, the package is installed, and it ships its
.desktop entry. (A --version invocation is NOT a reliable check —
when chrome-cdp wraps the binary it launches a full browser instead of
printing a version banner, contending with the running desktop chrome.)

Acceptance plan
Section titled “Acceptance plan”This candy’s plan: — the runnable spec charly check executes against a live deployment. check: steps are idempotent probes; run: steps change state.
