Subject: feat(desktop): the drawer, with the top reserved

Left of DP-1 because conky holds the right; ExclusionMode.Normal so the
bar the drawer is reached from stays visible and clickable. The top is an
empty Item claiming the space the notification engine will fill, so the
grid already sits where it will sit once that lands.
