Description:
This PR adds a workspace-taskbar mode to the niri/workspaces module, bringing functionality similar to the hyprland/workspaces module.
Motivation:
Currently, Niri users lack a native way to visualize windows and app icons within workspaces directly on the bar. While the wlr/taskbar module is an available option, it does not fully meet the needs for a structured taskbar; it often lacks sufficient organization of application icons and fails to maintain a logical or desired order, which is essential for efficient workflows on tiling compositors like Niri.
A native solution within niri/workspaces provides better integration, stable icon placement, and cleaner control over window management, specifically tailored for Niri's scrolling compositor.
