Description:
This PR introduces a column-based window folding and grouping mechanism for the Niri workspace taskbar.
Motivation:
In Niri's scrolling layout, multiple windows can be vertically stacked within the same column. Previously, the taskbar would flatly render every single window icon, leading to clutter. This change groups windows by their column index, displays the most recently focused window as a "cover", and provides optional counter badges for folded columns.
Key Changes
