Replace sddm and Nordic theme, remove sid, and fix background bug #104

I have found better alternatives for sddm and the Nordic dark theme. For sddm I replaced it with lightdm because when I tested it on my Debian machine, it installed the KDE Plasma desktop environment alongside the bspwm session. Also, when sddm booted up you had to manually select the bspwm session on first install. While minor, I replaced it with lightdm so that it can reduce the number of packages greatly. For Nordic, I found a more aesthetically pleasing Sweet-Dark-v40 theme which really looked nice. Also, I replaced the Nordic cursor for the Sweet cursor which is based on Breeze. Another small change I did was remove mangohud from the install list. The sid branch is very unstable, and since this script is meant to run on the testing branch, I deleted the sources.list file to make it more stable but still on the testing branch. I also found a bug where the background was a different name (bg.jpg) than what it should have been according to the bspwmrc (background.jpg) so I updated the code to fix that.
