Ryan Hughes a960d2b1bf Move omarchy-menu data and dispatch into the shell ...

omarchy-menu used to spawn an 821-line bash bin on every keybind: 11 jq
invocations against omarchy-menu.jsonc, mktemp dance, summon, poll. The
shell waited ~235ms (keybind to visible) before painting the first row.

The bar plugin host is already a persistent process with the menu plugin
loaded (keepLoaded: true) — it just wasn't allowed to own the menu data.
Now it does:

  - parseMenuJsonc / normalizeItem ports the bash bin's jq pipeline to
    JS: strip // comments + trailing commas, infer parent from dotted
    ids, dedupe keyword tokens across id/aliases/keywords, fill defaults.
  - Two FileViews with watchChanges: true on the default and user
    extension JSONCs. Edit either file and the in-memory item map
    refreshes without a restart.
  - IpcHandler exposes menu.summon(initialMenu) / refresh() / close() /
    ping(). summon resolves aliases the way the old bash route_target
    did, including the leaf-alias-is-an-action shortcut.
  - Action dispatch is now direct: when summoned via IPC (no selection
    or done file), Quickshell.execDetached(['bash','-lc', action]) runs
    the action and the menu closes. The legacy tempfile dance is kept
    only for the duration of the migration window.
  - provider sub-menus (fonts, power-profiles) are inline: tab-delimited
    bash one-liner per provider, parsed by mergeProviderRows.
  - when:/checked: bash expressions are batched into one Process at
    shell startup (and again whenever the JSONCs change). The menu
    opens instantly; visibility/check marks settle within ~50ms.

Measured: keybind-to-visible via the new IPC path is ~30ms (was ~235ms).
The bash bin still works for now and is removed in the next commit.
