Description:

Providing /etc/sddm.conf is unintended by developers[1] but they haven't time to change actual code yet. Currently this file takes precedence over files in /usr/lib/sddm/sddm.conf.d and /etc/sddm.conf.d which makes them useless.

Kde-Neon already disables installation of that file[2]

Moved it to /usr, it is nice to have a default sddm.conf installed that users can easily copy to /etc and customize
