fix(gtk): tray-menu arrows via USER-priority counter-rule; show menu icons
Some checks failed
Check / eval (push) Failing after 1m26s

Two corrections to ac7e6bd, which broke the bar it meant to spare:

1. Scoping the waybar '*' reset to 'window#waybar *' gave every reset
   property id-level specificity, so it started BEATING the later
   class rules (Boreal's pill border-radius/borders, workspace pills)
   that plain '*' correctly lost to — visibly wrecking the bar.
   Reverted all three stylesheets to the plain '*' block (bar restored
   byte-identical to pre-ac7e6bd) and instead restored the arrow where
   priority genuinely outranks waybar's stylesheet: stylix's gtk.css
   loads at USER priority (800) vs waybar's APPLICATION (600), so a
   'menu menuitem arrow { min-width/height: 16px }' there survives the
   reset in Waybar-hosted menus — the exact mechanism the neighbouring
   check/radio rule already uses for the same collapse. NB comments at
   each '*' block warn against re-scoping.

2. The 'missing icons' were never just arrows: GTK3 ships
   gtk-menu-images=false since 3.10, so image menu items (nm-applet's
   Wi-Fi list, udiskie) render iconless everywhere. Set
   gtk.gtk3.extraConfig.gtk-menu-images = 1 (merges into the
   settings.ini Stylix already writes).
