Albert Armea b840a7d694 Implement Ctrl+w and Alt+F4 to close the current activity 
Mouse not required

This is done by sending StopCommand to shepherdd, not by natively
closing the window. Sway initiates this to avoid any issues with
shepherd-launcher not having focus (as it won't when an activity is
running).

Sway StopCurrent Keybinds

Prompt summary:

  • Move keyboard exit handling out of launcher UI code and into sway.conf.
  • Keep controller home behavior as-is.
  • Ensure "exit" uses the API (StopCurrent) rather than closing windows directly.

Implemented summary:

  • Added a --stop-current mode to shepherd-launcher that sends StopCurrent to shepherdd over IPC and exits.
  • Added Sway keybindings for Alt+F4, Ctrl+W, and Home that execute shepherd-launcher --stop-current.
  • Kept controller home behavior in launcher UI unchanged.

Key files:

  • sway.conf
  • crates/shepherd-launcher-ui/src/main.rs
