feat(themes): per-theme rofi identities for nord/retro-82/lumon/kanagawa

Browse Source 
Author a designed rofi.rasi whole-swap for the four remaining identity
themes, so all six now carry a distinct menu look (summer-day/night
already shipped their legacy ports). Each is built from the theme's
character rather than a legacy layout (their waybar overrides are
palette-only, so there was nothing to port):

- nord:     soft rounded "frost panel" — frost border, brighter-frost
            selection, aurora-purple prompt
- retro-82: sharp CRT terminal — square corners, amber-on-navy, a teal
            scanline underline, mono
- lumon:    clinical cyan "bezel" — thick cyan frame, a framed-not-filled
            readout inputbar, mono
- kanagawa: ink & paper — warm washi-paper frame, deep ink-well inputbar,
            crystal-blue wave selection

Each file is self-contained (it replaces the generated theme) and keeps
the element structure the theme-grid picker's per-invocation -theme-str
layers onto. rofi.nix needs no change — its existing themes/<slug>/
rofi.rasi probe whole-swaps when the file is present. All four parse
clean under `rofi -dump-theme`.

each theme a screenshot of its themed desktop (waybar + floating terminal),
