fix(taskbar): hide the conky dash from the apps bubble
conky runs on the special:dash workspace with app_id conky-dash, which was never in ignore-list, so its icon showed in the apps bubble at every login. An earlier investigation blamed the kitty scratchpad and found nothing, because that window was already filtered and was not the one on screen. wlr/taskbar is built on foreign-toplevel-manager, which does not expose workspaces at all, so there is no workspace filter to reach for: app_id matching through ignore-list is the only lever. Recorded that in the module's comment, since every future special-workspace app needs the same line. TODO.md loses the entry this closes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
