tails-gdm-failed-to-start.service gives confusing info on systems with 2+ GPUs

Originally created by @intrigeri on #17533 (Redmine)

We see lots of reports flowing in (#16875 (closed), #17479 (closed)) that are not actionable as-is because tails-gdm-failed-to-start.service reports about the integrated GPU (typically Intel), while in most cases the discrete GPU (typically Nvidia or AMD) is used.

Ideally this service would be able to tell which GPU is used. Worst case, when there are multiple GPUs, perhaps it could display info about the non-Intel one, if any.
