Gabriel Brown b1f9891849 Add multitasking controls, and a light theme for the launcher
Two things, both closing gaps in work that was already reported done.

GNOME's Multitasking panel, in Hyprland's terms: tiling layout, split
behaviour, floating-window snapping, workspace wrap-around and
back-and-forth, whether applications may take focus, and whether the
pointer changes the active display. Hyprland creates and destroys
workspaces as you use them, so there is no fixed count to expose, and
the page says so rather than leaving a conspicuous absence.

The Desktop page described the first two of these as read-only facts --
"Layout: Tiling", "Workspace movement: Dynamic" -- which was never true.
Both are ordinary Hyprland options that happened to have no controls,
and TextRow's own documentation says a setting the user could reasonably
change does not belong in it. Schema defaults are Panama's shipped
values from looks.lua rather than Hyprland's own, so restoring defaults
returns the desktop to how it ships. 43 mapped options now, from 35.

The launcher had no light theme. vicinae.json already selected a theme
per system appearance, but both entries pointed at Moon, so choosing
light mode left the most frequently opened window on the desktop dark --
a hole in the light/dark work, not a missing feature. Day is authored
from the same palette as the kitty Day theme so the two cannot drift,
and link-dotfiles now installs every authored theme rather than only the
dark one, which is why the gap survived being noticed.

Its placeholder colour is not Tokyo Night Day's own: that measures
2.54:1 against the background, below the 3:1 floor for secondary text.
This is 3.25:1, the same value used for neovim's light comments.

// Desktop & Dock.

// The dock timings used to be shown here as text -- "Instant", "250 ms" -- even
// though they were already stored, mutable integers. They are controls now.
// The window-layout card keeps text rows because those really are facts about
// how Panama tiles rather than settings: the adjustable parts of window
// appearance live on the Appearance page, next to the preview that explains
// them.
