* Step the volume in the shell instead of a script per keypress

Each volume key ran omarchy-audio-output-volume: several pactl calls in
bash, then omarchy-osd delivering the OSD over a qs IPC client, ~165ms
from keypress to OSD, on keys that repeat while held.

The volume up, down and mute keys now dispatch global shortcuts that the
media service handles over PipeWire, stepping, clamping, unmuting and
debouncing by the script's rules and showing the same OSD. It acts only
when the default sink is an ALSA sink, which is its own physical sink.
Any other default, a DSP chain or EasyEffects above all, falls back to
the script, which resolves the physical sink from the live routing on
every press. The precise +1/-1 keys still run the script.

Keypress to OSD drops from ~168ms to ~20ms.

* Run media and notification keys in the shell without an IPC client

The media keys and the notification dismiss, invoke and history keys ran
omarchy-shell, starting a qs client for one argument-free IPC call.

A new ipc shortcut kind names such a call as target.method. The shell
hands it to the service that owns the target, which runs its own
IpcHandler function, so the key behaves exactly as the omarchy-shell
call did. A call missing from the list binds through omarchy-shell.

Dismissing a notification with SUPER+comma clears the popup in ~11ms
instead of ~40ms.

David Heinemeier HanssonandClaude Opus 5.5 6762769bbf Open shell menus and panels through Hyprland global shortcuts (#13418)
Every binding that opened a menu or panel ran omarchy-menu or
omarchy-shell, which starts a qs client just to deliver one IPC call:
~60ms before the shell heard about the keypress.

The shell now registers a Hyprland global shortcut for each menu route
and panel in default/omarchy/shortcuts, and o.bind turns { menu = ... }
and { panel = ... } into hl.dsp.global for those, so a keypress spawns
nothing. A route or panel missing from the list binds through the
command as before. The default menu and panel bindings use the new form.

SUPER+SPACE opens the menu in ~31ms instead of ~94ms, measured from a
simulated keypress until the menu layer maps.
