Re: new security/web-eid-app
I checked the following:
* Builds, installs and uninstalls cleanly on amd64
* /usr/local/bin/web-eid starts and shows a window explaining that it
wants to be invoked by a browser extension
* following the instructions in -chrome, a window pops up when clicking
"Authenticate" on web-eid.eu
I did notice that having a Yubikey plugged in seems to confuse the
application, i.e. either I didn't see anything when clicking
'Authenticate' or could only catch a hint of a flicker of the window
opening and closing again - possibly the application doesn't deal
well with other kinds of smartcards present.

No progress yet other browsers besides chromium.

native messaging host for Web eID browser extension

The Web eID application peforms cryptographic digital signing and

browser extension, for which it acts as native messaging host.
Also works standalone without the extension in command-line mode.

Even without smart card, you can test -native by running `web-eid'
manually to get a Qt6 window.
For -chrome follow README, click 'Authenticate' on https://web-eid.eu
and get a window; with a smart card, follow the process and view the
resulting file in security/qdigidoc4; without a smart card, close the
window (your browser's extension successfully talked to the native
messaging host application).
Feedback? OK?

Chromium works! I named our packages after upstream's official debian/ubuntu
web-eid-{chrome,firefox,native}-*.deb ones.
-native has the cli/native messaging host, -chrome has the config for
www/chromium and a README pointing at the official extention plus unveil.
Once I sorted out the other chrome flavours in out ports tree, my plan
is to make -chrome ship those too; no need for -chromium, -irdium, etc.
With www/mozilla-firefox the extension starts the native app and
stdin/out sees data, but something goes wrong. Need to investigate,

To clarify, you can already download the extensions from the official firefox and chrome stores, but the idea is to ship them as system extension so that all browser profiles get the known good version from our packages autoamatically -- users can still disable, but not uninstall it.
