fix: guard unset HOME in desktop-entry cmake script and correct plan verification

Two code-review findings:

1. Add a guard in cmake/install_desktop_entry.cmake that fails visibly when both
   XDG_DATA_HOME and HOME are unset or empty, preventing silent installation to
   the filesystem root in minimal CI sandboxes.

2. Replace the plan's tail-based verification with grep, because cmake's
   FATAL_ERROR message and ninja's "build stopped" lines push the actual
   rejection message out of the last four lines. The grep command reliably finds
   the expected "desktop-file-validate rejected" string.
