Change default shell from bash to zsh by default?

setup-dist is no longer auto started with zsh. This is important for Whonix CLI.

For bash this is implemented in:

Kicksecure/setup-dist/blob/master/etc/profile.d/30_setup.sh

#!/bin/bash

if [ ! "$XDG_SESSION_TYPE" = "tty" ]; then
   true "$0: INFO: Not running in tty. Stop."
   return 0
   exit 0
fi

## Run in /dev/tty1 only.
if [ ! "$(tty)" = "/dev/tty1" ]; then
   true "$0: INFO: Not running in /dev/tty1. Stop."
   return 0
   exit 0
fi

true "$0: INFO: Running in /dev/tty1. Continuing..."

How could we do something similar for zsh?

Probably bad idea to make zsh parse /etc/profile and /etc/profile.d?

Is there an equivalent for /etc/profile.d for zsh?
