Order the migration notifier after graphical-session.target

Browse Source 
omarchy-migrate-notify.service is a Type=oneshot wanted by
graphical-session.target, and systemd complements a target's Wants= with an
implicit After=, so the target waited for the notifier to exit. The notifier
does not exit quickly: it sends the notification through systemd-run --scope,
which is synchronous, and omarchy-notification-send -a blocks until the user
clicks. The target stayed in activating for as long as the toast was up.

wayland-wm-app-daemon.service is After=graphical-session.target and nothing
wants it, so uwsm-app starts it on demand. Clicking the notification runs
omarchy-launch-floating-terminal-with-presentation, which execs uwsm-app,
which blocks on a systemctl --user restart of that daemon -- a job queued
behind the very target the clicked notifier was holding open. The terminal
never opened; uwsm-app gave up on its own pipe timeout instead.

Declaring After= on the wanted unit suppresses the implicit dependency rather
than forming a cycle, so the target is reached without waiting and the
notifier runs behind it.
