feat: add hyprscratch scratchpad management with rule reapply fork

- Add hyprscratch from colonelpanic8/reapply-rules-on-toggle fork that
  reapplies size/position/float rules on every toggle (not just spawn)
- Configure 9 scratchpads: htop, volume, spotify, element, slack,
  transmission, dropdown, gmail, messages
- Use clean mode (hide on workspace change) and auto-dismiss (only
  dropdown persists)
- Fix pavucontrol class (org.pulseaudio.pavucontrol) and dropdown
  position (offset by taffybar height)
- Add kanshi-sni, dbus-menu, dbus-hslogger flake inputs and follows
