Microsoft sign-in currently launches xodus immediately, so its root password prompt appears without explaining the hardware read.

Add a Continue/Cancel dialog before the login helper starts. It explains the serial number/UUID read for Microsoft device registration and licensing, identifies the command shown in the system prompt, and says to use the Linux user password. Cancel skips the helper, and the busy state resets on every exit. The dialog appears on each sign-in attempt because the helper may need permission again.

Validation: Release build passed with .NET 10.0.401 (zero warnings/errors); git diff --check passed. The actual desktop authorization prompt was not exercised.
