Ship herdr alongside tmux (#6406)

* Ship herdr with a config that mirrors our tmux setup

Installs herdr through the mise shim, ships the matching config as an
Omarchy default, and adds the usual refresh/restart pair. The keybindings
map tmux sessions to workspaces, windows to tabs, and keep both the prefix
and direct bindings from config/tmux/tmux.conf.

* Add herdr versions of the tmux dev layout functions

hdl, hds, hdlm, and hsl drive herdr through its socket API instead of
tmux. hsl tiles into a real grid since herdr has no select-layout tiled.

* Namespace the herdr layout helpers so they stay out of the shell

* Create hdlm's tabs in its own workspace instead of the focused one

herdr tab create follows the focused workspace without --workspace, so
switching workspaces while hdlm loops scatters the new tabs.

* Lay hsl's grid out in visual order

Splitting the first column repeatedly inserted each new column between it
and the previous one, so uneven counts put the spare row in a middle
column instead of the last.

* Report herdr config reload failures instead of swallowing them

* Hide herdr's pane scrollbars to match tmux

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Escape queued herdr layout commands

* Install herdr from the omarchy-herdr package instead of mise

* Use native herdr resize keybindings for tmux-style pane resizing

* Rename the omarchy-herdr package to herdr
