Immutable git-tracked files break git tooling. The pre-push ci-mirror gate
runs `pre-commit run --all-files`; end-of-file-fixer opens every file rb+
and dies with "PermissionError: Operation not permitted", so no push from a
normal checkout could ever succeed — every push had to be routed through a
throwaway worktree (a fresh checkout gets new, non-immutable inodes). The
same immutability also breaks pre-commit's unstaged-changes stash: the
`git checkout -- .` unlink fails, the restore never runs, and unrelated
unstaged edits are silently reverted.
Enforcement does not depend on these sources being locked: /etc/hosts is
itself chattr +i, hosts-guard.path watches and re-enforces it via
enforce-hosts.sh against the locked-hosts canonical snapshot, and
hosts-bind-mount.service pins it. Editing the sources changes nothing until
install.sh is re-run as root, which regenerates the guarded artifacts.
Companion to 6e3d61d (same fix for setup_midnight_shutdown.sh).

- Screen locker: disable VT switching (Ctrl+Alt+Fn) via setxkbmap
srvrkeys:none on startup; restore on close (production mode only).
Gracefully skips if setxkbmap is not installed (shutil.which).
Tests: 7 new tests, 100% branch coverage maintained.
- Midnight shutdown: restore real schedule values (Mon-Wed 21:00,
Thu-Sun 22:00, morning end 05:00); re-enable the three commented-out
leniency checks in check_schedule_protection(); self-lock script with
chattr +i at end of enable_midnight_shutdown().
- Hosts install: add UNBLOCK_STATE_FILE tracking for whitelisted domains;
check_unblock_entries_protection() blocks installation if the unblock
list grows; save state after install; self-lock install.sh and
generate_hosts_file.sh with chattr +i.
