fix(waybar): supervisor respawn + clean-restart switches; add sys-rebuild
Recovers the crashed iteration #7 (items 21+23, Latitude QA findings): - nomarchy-waybar supervisor (waybar.nix, exec-once'd from hyprland.nix): any waybar exit respawns the bar; crash-loop guard (5 fast exits -> critical notify + stop); TERM trapped for a real stop. Fixes the bar-less session after a theme-switch crash. - nomarchy-theme-sync prefers a clean `pkill -x waybar` (supervisor restart with fresh config+style) over the crash-prone in-place SIGUSR2 reload when the supervisor is running; SIGUSR2 stays as the unsupervised fallback. - sys-rebuild: snapshot-first system rebuild against the CURRENT lock (no `nix flake update`) — the no-update twin of sys-update; README §3/§5 + motd list it. Verified: V0 re-run green after crash recovery (flake check --no-build + py_compile); V1/V2 per the crashed session's journal entry (HM renders exec-once=nomarchy-waybar; headless software-GL VM: SIGKILL -> new pid, clean kill -> respawn, SIGUSR2 -> alive). V3 pending on the Latitude (queued in HARDWARE-QUEUE.md). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

### 21. Waybar crash on theme switch — no respawn
|
||||
Reported: after a theme switch on the Latitude, Waybar crashed and
|
||||
never came back (exec-once = no supervisor; a crash orphans the session
|
||||
until relogin). Two halves: (a) **resilience** — Waybar must respawn on
|
||||
crash regardless of cause. exec-once a small supervisor loop (restart
|
||||
with backoff; must not fight `pkill -x waybar` intentional stops), or
|
||||
re-attempt the systemd user unit with an IPC-readiness gate (the naive
|
||||
unit raced Hyprland IPC on relogin — see waybar.nix's comment). (b)
|
||||
**root cause** — the switch path both flips `style.css` (Waybar's
|
||||
`reload_style_on_change` picks it up) *and* sends SIGUSR2
|
||||
(`nomarchy-theme-sync`), a double-reload during the config/css symlink
|
||||
flip; suspect the race crashes Waybar's reload. Consider: drop the
|
||||
SIGUSR2 when `reload_style_on_change` is on, or replace reload with a
|
||||
clean restart on switch. **Verify:** V2 (kill waybar in the themed-VM
|
||||
recipe → respawns; switch theme → bar survives); V3 re-check on the
|
||||
Latitude.

### 23. `sys-rebuild` — rebuild without updating the lock
|
||||
Reported: there's no way to rebuild the system *without* `sys-update`'s
|
||||
`nix flake update` (home-update already skips the lock; the system side
|
||||
lacks the twin). Add `sys-rebuild` (snapshot-first like sys-update,
|
||||
rebuild against the current lock, no update) alongside `sys-update`;
|

document both in README §5 + the motd cheat sheet if it lists them.
