Implement a desktop shortcut, within the rig, that triggers `scale-down.sh` activities. One option is to trigger a nohup'd command via `gcloud alpha cloud-shell`  to trigger the scale down (being careful to appease cloud-shell's keep-alive checks)

**Bonus points:**
make this run when you "click shutdown" - explictly windows-initiated shutdowns, not when GCP is initiating the shutdown via ACPI G2 Soft Off)

Why only on windows-initiated shutdowns?

- GCP's instance.stop ends in a recoverable STOPPED state; the instance group will pick up on this and happily start back up again without recreating the boot disk.

- GCP's instance.delete ends in an unrecoverable state that our scale-down cleanup actions expect, or is a deliberate user-initiated action where "delete" is the thing that should happen
Make "end session" a desktop icon
