perf(dashboard): draw at 0.1s only while the dashboard is visible
Conky gives Lua no way to request one redraw, so a scroll showed up to
2s late. Pointer enter and leave, which Hyprland sends on every toggle
of the special workspace, now switch conky_set_update_interval between
0.1s and the config's 2s.
At that rate the CPU and network counters would sample over 0.1s
windows and the chart would fill 20x faster, so both now sample through
data.new_gate on the /proc/uptime clock, about every 2s, and redraw
their last values in between. The samplers move to texeci: execi runs
in the main loop and a 0.7s nvtable or an Immich download stalled the
scroll.
Measured: about 12% of one core while visible, 0.5% while hidden.
