feat: add Hyprland placement rules and toggle
A Lua section, not a .conf fragment: the live Hyprland config is
hyprland.lua requiring sections/, with rules declared through the hl
helper API.
Pins conky-dash to its own special:dash workspace, fullscreen, no
border, no focus, and binds SUPER+S. Not SUPER+D, which keybindings.lua
already binds to the unnamed special workspace, and that workspace
already hosts the btop scratchpad.
no_focus matters because the dashboard starts with the session:
without it, it steals focus at login and can be tabbed to like an app.
autostart.lua already launches a bare conky, so the README says to
change that line rather than add one, which would run two instances.
