Motivation for this change

This enhances #61423, which removed the gating of desktop-managers from
being linked to the xserver's state.

This, though, brought in xterm into all systems, even those without X
servers.

This change sets the default of the xterm desktop-manager to the state
of the xserver, keeping it enabled by default as a sane fallback.

The xterm desktop-manager can still be enabled or disabled as needed,
without it being affected by xserver's state.

Things done
  • ☑️ Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • ☑️ NixOS
    • 🔲 macOS
    • 🔲 other Linux distributions
  • 🔲 Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • 🔲 Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nix-review --run "nix-review wip"
  • 🔲 Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • 🔲 Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • ☑️ Assured whether relevant documentation is up to date
  • ☑️ Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

being linked to the xserver's state.

This, though, brought in xterm into all systems, even those without X
servers.

This change sets the *default* of the xterm desktop-manager to the state
of the xserver, keeping it enabled by default as a sane fallback.

The xterm desktop-manager can still be enabled or disabled as needed,
without it being affected by xserver's state.
