chore(tasks): file the velox mic workaround, archive the Fn-keys taskHEADmain
Home found velox's internal mic dead on the AMD ACP digital-mic path and applied a WirePlumber drop-in by hand. The new task has the installer carry it, gated on the hardware, with the note to re-check after each kernel update. The closed Fn-keys task moves to the archive.

+** DONE [#B] Function keys issue media actions instead of F-keys :bug:velox:
+CLOSED: [2026-09-01 Tue]

+From the roam inbox, Craig's words: "function keys should issue F+number
+functionality rather than their media functionality when the button is hit.
+currently it's reversed and I have to hit function and the f button for F+number
+functionality."
+
+Check first whether this belongs to archsetup at all. On a Framework the Fn-lock
+is a firmware-level toggle held in the keyboard itself (Fn+Esc on most
+revisions), not something the OS sets, in which case this is one keystroke
+rather than a change here. If it is instead a hid/keyboard-module quirk, it is
+ours.
+
+Grading: Minor severity (the keys work, they are on the wrong layer, and there
+is a workaround) x every user every time (every F-key press) = P2 = [#B].
+
+Resolved 2026-09-01: not ours, as the body suspected. The Fn layer is decided
+in the EC (the keyboard reaches Linux as a plain AT keyboard on i8042), so no
+OS-side knob exists. One keystroke: Fn+Esc toggles Fn Lock; Craig confirmed
+F1-F12 now send F-keys by default. The EC holds the state across reboots; it
+reverts only if the EC loses power (battery disconnect or mainboard reset),
+which is likely why it flipped around the August reinstall.
