The indicator polled omarchy-toggle-idle over a Process and re-ran it on
a timer to toggle, while the CLI called back into the shell over IPC to
apply and refresh the state it had just changed. Now the indicator binds
straight to the idle service's stayAwake property and flips it in
process. The CLI only touches the state file, which the service already
watches, so toggling from keybindings and scripts still reaches the
shell without any reentrant IPC.

Each `bash -lc` starts a login shell that re-sources the profile
(mise activation, /etc/profile.d) on every invocation — ~16 forks per
call versus ~2 for `bash -c` — which taxes every menu/panel/launcher
action the shell shells out for. The session already exports PATH and
env to the shell, so omarchy commands resolve fine under `bash -c`.
Switch the internal/omarchy-owned spawns (theme+background switches,
brightness, monitor scaling, DNS, lock/fingerprint, keyboard-layout
probe, voxtype status, and the `:`/printf state-file writes) to
`bash -c`. Leave `bash -lc` on the sites that run user-configurable
commands (custom bar-widget exec, menu provider/guard scripts,
launcher scan commands, configurable idle/screensaver command), where
a user's command may rely on their login environment.

The indicators widget broadcast a refresh every 2s, fanning out to four
status subprocesses (nightlight, idle, reminder, screen-recording), and
NightLight/StayAwake each ran an additional 5s poll. On an idle desktop
this was the dominant source of process churn (~33 of ~53 forks/sec in a
VM). The state-changing commands already push `omarchy.indicators
refresh` over IPC, so the polling was redundant.
Drop the 2s broadcast and the two 5s timers; indicators now refresh at
startup and on the IPC push. Also fix three callers that pushed to the
wrong target `Indicators` instead of `omarchy.indicators` (screen
recording, notification silencing, and the omarchy-shell help example) —
those pushes silently failed and only appeared to work because the poll
masked them.
Idle fork rate drops ~53/s to ~20/s.
