feat: supplementary groups + credential syscalls — setgroups/getgroups/RLIMIT

Kernel (3 files, 32 lines):
- Context.groups: Vec<u32> — supplementary group storage
- CallerCtx.groups — exposed to schemes for access control
- Proc scheme Groups handle — auth-{fd}-groups read/write path
- Fork inheritance — new-context copies parent groups to child

Relibc (4 files, 82 insertions, 84 deletions):
- posix_setgroups()/posix_getgroups() in redox-rt sys.rs
- DynamicProcInfo.groups cache in lib.rs
- setgroups() real impl via thr_fd.dup(auth-{fd}-groups)
- getgroups() kernel-only (no /etc/group fallback)
- initgroups() functional via setgroups()
- getrlimit/setrlimit userspace stubs with defaults

Patches:
- local/patches/kernel/P4-supplementary-groups.patch
- local/patches/relibc/P4-setgroups-getgroups.patch

Docs updated:
- COMPREHENSIVE-OS-ASSESSMENT: credential blocker → RESOLVED
- KERNEL-IPC-CREDENTIAL-PLAN: marked Phases K1-K2,K4 complete
- local/AGENTS.md: credential gap section → RESOLVED

Unblocks: polkit, dbus-daemon, logind, sudo/su, redbear-authd

### Current Comprehensive Implementation Gaps
**ROOT CAUSE (Credential Syscalls)**: The Redox microkernel lacks process credentials syscalls. This is NOT a relibc issue - the kernel itself does not implement them.
**CREDENTIAL SYSCALLS — RESOLVED (2026-04-30)**: `setgroups`, `getgroups`, `initgroups`, `setresuid`, `setresgid`, `getrlimit`, `setrlimit` are now implemented. See `local/docs/KERNEL-IPC-CREDENTIAL-PLAN.md` for the full implementation detail.
| Gap | Root Cause | Required Work |
|-----|-----------|---------------|
| `setgroups` ENOSYS on Redox | Redox kernel has NO `SYS_SETGROUPS` syscall number or handler. `redox_syscall` crate (upstream) doesn't define it. | **KERNEL WORK**: Add syscall number to `redox_syscall` + implement handler in kernel + wire in `redox_rt` |
| `getgroups` returns only egid | Redox kernel has no group table concept | **KERNEL WORK**: Design and implement supplementary groups |
| `setuid/setgid/getuid/getgid` | Same - no credential syscalls in kernel | **KERNEL WORK**: Same pattern |
**Implementation**: Kernel: `Context.groups: Vec<u32>`, `CallerCtx.groups`, Groups proc scheme handle at `auth-{fd}-groups`. Relibc: `posix_setgroups()`/`posix_getgroups()` in redox-rt, real `setgroups()`/`getgroups()` in platform layer, RLIMIT userspace stubs. Durable patches: `local/patches/kernel/P4-supplementary-groups.patch`, `local/patches/relibc/P4-setgroups-getgroups.patch`.
| Gap | Root Cause | Status |
|-----|-----------|--------|
| `setgroups` ENOSYS on Redox | Redox kernel had no supplementary group infrastructure | ✅ RESOLVED |
| `getgroups` returns only egid | Redox kernel had no group table concept | ✅ RESOLVED |
| `setuid/setgid/getuid/getgid` | No credential syscalls in kernel | ✅ Already worked via `posix_setresugid` (proc scheme) |
| `getrlimit`/`setrlimit` | ENOSYS | ✅ RESOLVED — userspace stubs with defaults |
| **CONFIG: KWin is a stub** | KWin recipe downloads real v6.3.4 source but build script never compiles it — only creates wrapper scripts + fake cmake configs | **KWin RECIPE WORK**: Convert from custom stub to real cmake build, or document as permanent stub |
| **CONFIG: 22 KF6 recipes not enabled** | 47 KF6/Plasma/KWin recipes exist in local/recipes/kde/ with real cmake builds, but only 9 KF6 + kwin (stub) are in the built image — the rest are commented out in config | **CONFIG WORK**: Enable buildable KF6 packages in redbear-full.toml |
| **CONFIG: Plasma packages blocked** | plasma-framework, plasma-workspace, plasma-desktop have real cmake builds but are commented out as BLOCKED in redbear-full.toml | **CONFIG WORK**: Resolve blockers (kwin stub → real, kf6-knewstuff → QtNetwork) then enable |
