fprintd eDP guard: allow fingerprint auth only when eDP-1 is active

Installation Log

Date: 2026-05-17 Host context: Fedora laptop, Cinnamon/X11 session

Goal

Allow fingerprint authentication only while the internal laptop display connector eDP-1 is active. If the internal panel is disabled, fprintd must not be started implicitly through D-Bus.
