In my attempt to update yesterday I ended up uninstalling startkde,
which meant I couldn't get into KDE any more.  I was wondering if there
is some place I can find where the list of xsessions (startkde or
whatever) is stored, or how it is generated?  I am seeing two different
sessions listed as Kodi on the system.  And I'd like to know why, and to
better differentiate them if there is a good reason that there are two
of them.

You need  kde-plasma/plasma-workspace .
You can emerge it from a raw terminal.

I suspect that I probably ended up masking certain packages around the time that KDE5 was getting pushed out, but it seems that the "mess" I am currently experiencing might be worth looking at what I have done with KDE to see if there is some stuff which I now need to "unfix". 

Though, your answer didn't address what I had intended to ask.  Which was how to figure out what KDM is using for the session list.
