feat: launcher to the DP-1 centre, hamburger for English
The launcher sat in the centre of the DP-3 status bar, which is the narrow
rotated screen. It moves to the middle of the DP-1 desktop bar, where the
workspaces and the window list already live and there is room either side of
it. Each bar object carries its own include list, so the module definition
moves with it.
English gets the hamburger back. The stock bar drew it with an emoji, which
this module cannot do: it is an image module and takes a path, not text. So
the emoji ships as an image instead, from Twemoji. Doing it the other way
round, reverting to hyprland/language and its format-en text, would have
brought the burger back at the cost of turning the Italian flag into an emoji
too, and the real flag asset is worth keeping.
flag-gb.svg had no reference left after that, so it is deleted, and install.sh
removes the copy an earlier install left behind.
The docs carried three claims that were wrong rather than merely stale: the
launcher was listed as a CSS background when it has been an image module since
the mark was fixed, and SPEC still described the udt role work as adding roles
named after this bar's modules when what shipped was deleting eleven roles
nothing read. The dot colours were described as coming from [state] roles that
gen_waybar never emitted.
