Hello distro packagers!

This is a heads-up about required PAM config file changes to support a 
recently merged Plasma 6 feature to let the lock screen use both 
password and fingerprint/smartcard/etc. authentication methods 
simultaneously.

This has been documented at 
https://community.kde.org/Plasma/Plasma_6#PAM_configuration and 
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kscreenlocker/-/merge_requests/163
