If Biden resigns, the Democrats lose their majority in the Senate. Republicans could continue to deny them a majority by refusing to confirm any VP other than a Republican or a Senator from Georgia (who Kemp could replace with a Republican).

Very true. And that would be the smart play.
But Republicans are not smart. The Senate almost always confirms presidential nominees, under the theory that the president should have the right to choose who he wants to work with.
So I’ll betcha that at least one GOP senator would fold, and respect that “tradition”.
And if your Aunt had balls she's be your uncle.
Harris could nominate Susan Collins and the Governor of Maine could then appoint a Democrat.
