Subject: [PATCH] feat(paseo): preinstall nano and set the git identity from
 the environment

GIT_NAME and GIT_EMAIL expand into the four GIT_AUTHOR_*/GIT_COMMITTER_*
variables, the same shape code-server already uses. Passing the identity as
environment rather than running `git config` means agents and terminals commit
correctly with no setup step, and it does not depend on ~/.gitconfig surviving
in the /home/paseo volume.
