v3.0.0

A lot has changed since when I first wrote hyprdim. Special workspaces now function similar to actual workspaces and even include fullscreen windows, which simplifies the code base a bit.

Breaking Changes

• Persist by default. hyprdim will always work and the --persist flag is no longer necessary. If you want to toggle hyprdim functionality, you should kill it instead of changing dim_inactive.
• No dim when only by default. No reason to dim when there's only one window showing. Remove --no-dim-when-only from your config.
• No-dim options for special workspaces have been removed. Remove --ignore-entering-special and --ignore-leaving-special from your config. If you want to not dim when toggling a special workspace, use a single window (or fullscreen one) on that workspace, or kill hyprdim in your Hyprland keybinds.
• Dialog dim is now default. Set --dialog-dim to 0 to disable.
