bookmarks: Firefox bookmarks as a full-width overlay
A new standalone shell, shaped like hosts, on SUPER+b. bookmarks.py reads
the bookmark tree and favicons of the profile a running Firefox holds
(found through the pid in its lock symlink; the last-modified places.sqlite
was tried first and picked the guest profile after a stray launch touched
it). Firefox keeps both databases in exclusive lock mode, so they are
copied with their -wal and the copy is read: an immutable=1 open of the
original skipped the log and kept showing bookmarks deleted minutes before.
The grid spans DP-1, a ListView of card rows so only visible rows exist,
grouped by folder with each folder's own bookmarks before its subfolders.
Six icon buttons (Ctrl+S cycles) sort by folder, newest, title, site, most
visited or link state. The wheel scrolls three rows a notch through a
MouseArea, since Flickable's own step crawled; only the selected card
carries a Glow, through a Loader.
Favicons are extracted by content hash; a page without one takes any icon
Firefox holds for its host, which found 52 more of 504.
bookmarks.py --links (Ctrl+R) checks every http(s) bookmark, HEAD then GET,
32 at a time, in about 22s, and caches the result. Dead means 404/410, an
NXDOMAIN or a refused connection; 403, 429, timeouts, TLS and resolver
failures are only "unsure", because a 32-thread burst produced EAI_AGAIN
that a serial retry resolved.
Bookmarks open with xdg-open: a plain `firefox <url>` does not reach an
instance started with -P and opened the default profile beside it.
