Rootless podman cannot map the 'render' gid (990) into the container namespace (dank's subgid range is 100000+), so --group-add render fails to start the container. GPU access actually comes from the /dev/kfd + /dev/dri passthrough, checked host-side (the run user is already in 'render' on the host). So add only the 'video' group (which resolves) and drop 'render'. Update the group test to assert video present and render ABSENT (with the rootless rationale), per the approved rootless config.
