Empty initrd for display, add rp1_dsi module

ALL RP1 hardware (gpio, clocks, dsi) sits behind the RP1 PCIe
southbridge, which isn't ready until ~12s. Loading any display
module in initrd (~3s) crashes the system. Nothing in initrd now:
- boot.initrd.kernelModules: empty (nothing touches RP1 early)
- boot.kernelModules: vc4, panel_cwu50, rp1_dsi (stage-2)

-# nixos-rollback.sh — NixOS systemd-boot Rollback Script
-#
-# Detects a failed NixOS generation (critical services not starting) and sets
-# the previous generation as the default boot option for systemd-boot.
-# Logs all actions to syslog/journald and a local logfile. Fails safely when
-# no previous generation exists or required files are missing.
-#
-# Integration with the boot sentinel:
-#   sentinel-check.sh  →  detects Tier-1 service failures (sshd, docker,
-#                          traefik, authelia) after a boot
-#   nixos-rollback.sh  ←  called when sentinel exits nonzero; sets previous
-#                          generation as default for next boot
-#
-# Usage:
-#   nixos-rollback.sh                        # auto-detect & set previous gen
-#   nixos-rollback.sh --dry-run              # show what would be done

-#
-# Installation on NixOS:
-#   Place in /usr/local/bin/nixos-rollback.sh and make executable.

-${CYAN}DESCRIPTION${NC}
-    Reads the current default boot entry from ${LOADER_CONF},
-    determines the previous generation number, and writes it as the
-    new default.  The script only modifies systemd-boot config —
-    it does NOT touch the Nix store or system profile unless
-    --rollback-now is passed.
-
-    Designed as the rollback half of a boot sentinel:
-      1. System boots into generation N
-      2. sentinel-check.sh detects Tier-1 service failures
-      3. nixos-rollback.sh sets default to generation N-1
