** Description changed:
[ Impact ]
- * On Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, gnome-session 50.1 takes a strong logind inhibitor
- while the session has a logout inhibitor. Since systemd v257, logind
always
- obeys block inhibitors, and rejects the request before asking polkit
- including root. Any program that calls login 1 PowerOff/Reboot while
- inhibitor is held will fail with
- "org.freedesktop.login1.BlockedByInhibitorLock".
- * This caused several CLI tools that needs to reboot without skipping the
- inhibitor with RebootWithFlags unusable in the default terminal ptyxis.
For
- example, fwupdmgr can't reboot to perform firmware flashing when updating
- firmware in ptyxis.

[ Test Plan ]
- * On device with Ubuntu 26.04
- * Open ptyxis ("Terminal" from the application menu)
- * Open 2 tabs: run `vi` in 1, switch to another then run `systemctl reboot`
- * Check if it can reboot without being inhibited

[ Where problems could occur ]
- * The patch affects all application opened in gnome-session that shutdown
and
- sleep inhibitor now yields to priviledged action and lock owner action.
- * Commit is backported to 50.1 that uses `manager->priv->` instead of the
- upstream where `manager->` is used in 51.0 release.
