// Allow members of the `wheel` group to manage systemd-networkd links
// (e.g. `networkctl up/down <iface>`) without a polkit password prompt.
// This single-user system already trusts wheel for administrative work
// via sudo-rs; networkd's polkit gate is a separate path that does not
// honour sudoers, so a polkit rule is the idiomatic fix.
