fix(nix,meta): keep ghostty on pacman to fix missing OpenGL context
ghostty is a GPU/OpenGL terminal. Nix-built GL apps on a non-NixOS host
can't locate the system Mesa/DRI driver (FHS /usr/lib drivers don't match
nix's search paths), so the nix-migrated ghostty failed to start with
"missing OpenGL context". Move it back to meta/base.txt (pacman) so it
links against system Mesa. Same caveat flagged for imv/wl-mirror/sparrow.
