stornic56 92d0eb7467 System Refactor, GPU & Terminal Overhaul 
- Bug Fixes: Rewrote `install_gaming_bullseye()` in `modules/bullseye/legacy.sh` to use a unified `_checklist` flow (matching Debian 12/13) with automatic i386 architecture detection and driver installation. Fixed greetd "Back" menu crash on Debian 11 by adding version-specific conditional logic in `desktop_display.sh`. Corrected ZRAM text overflow in `zram.sh` using `\n` line breaks for terminal wrapping. Updated Kernel Backports warning message in `debianito.sh` to clarify Bullseye limitations.

- Architecture & Repositories: Refactored Debian 11 repository configuration (`configure_repos_bullseye`) to reuse modern submenus (`_repos_enable_components`, `_branch_migration`), eliminating ~44 lines of hardcoded logic and duplicate source list management. Restricted `non-free-firmware` component availability to Debian 12+ in `modules/repos.sh`. Implemented mandatory `apt autoremove -y` and `apt autoclean` execution immediately after enabling non-free/contrib components (`_repos_enable_components`).

- UI & Menus: Added a new "Communication" menu (Option 4) between Internet and Media Players, featuring Signal, Telegram (with Trixie backports warning), and Hexchat. Moved all terminal emulators from System Tools to the "Customization System" -> Terminals submenu (`modules/extras/terminals/terminals.sh`) with version-specific logic (Alacritty 12+, Blackbox/Ptyxis 13+). Added Joplin installer in Office & Productivity for Debian 12/13 only. Integrated Synaptic into Software Centers menu alongside GNOME and Plasma stores. Unified Essential Pack UI across versions, switching between `fastfetch` (Trixie) and `neofetch` (Bookworm/Bullseye).

- Hardware Drivers: Replaced deprecated `install_gpu_drivers()` in `modules/gpu.sh` with `_install_amd_intel_stack()` and `_install_nvidia_stack()`. Implemented specific logic for Debian 13 (Trixie): Blackwell GPUs now enable the official NVIDIA CUDA repository; Maxwell/Pascal on Backports forces a stable kernel path to ensure driver compatibility. Deprecated `install_nvidia_driver()` in favor of new stack functions while preserving global state variables (`NVIDIA_DRIVER_MODE`).

- Utilities & Cleanup: Added `gdebi` and `bleachbit` to System Tools (GUI-only). Standardized menu headers across 15 files using a centralized `SCROLL_HINT` variable. Ensured VLC installation is conditional on headless status checks in Essential Pack modules.

<h1 align="center">Debianito - Post-Installation Automation for Debian</h1>
<div align="center">
Debianito is a user-friendly post-installation automation script for Debian 11 (Bullseye), Debian 12 (Bookworm) and Debian 13 (Trixie). It streamlines system configuration, driver installation (including NVIDIA drivers), repository setup with backports support, gaming tools integration, and more with an interactive menu-driven interface.
