feat(nightlight): menu + Waybar on/off toggle

Add a runtime toggle for the scheduled blue-light filter, the remaining
optional item on the night-light roadmap entry.

nomarchy-nightlight (nightlight.nix, always on PATH) starts/stops the
hyprsunset *service* rather than poking its runtime gamma: `systemctl
--user is-active` is the single source of truth, the screen restores to
true colours when stopped, and it lets you force the filter off for
colour-sensitive work (even at night) and back on without touching config.
It self-gates — `status` prints nothing when the unit is absent — so the
indicator hides itself when night-light isn't enabled.

- Menu: `nomarchy-menu nightlight` toggles it; a self-gated row in the
  System submenu (shown only when the hyprsunset unit exists).
- Waybar: a self-gating `custom/nightlight` indicator (moon = on, sun =
  off), in the generated bar and both summer whole-swap themes for parity.

Verified: home generation builds, generated waybar config carries
custom/nightlight, the menu has the dispatcher case + System row, both
scripts pass bash -n, and status self-gates to empty with no unit. Pending
an on-machine check that stopping hyprsunset cleanly restores the gamma.
