Restores 42e06da, which was reverted only because Cargo.lock had not been
updated for the new crate and every cargo invocation in CI passes `--locked`.
Both desktop jobs failed on that line before compiling anything, so nothing
about the code had been judged.

The lockfile was generated in CI's own `ci-tauri:1.97` image — one container,
`cargo fetch`, nothing built. `cargo fetch` and NOT `generate-lockfile`: the
latter re-resolves from scratch and would have churned versions across the
whole workspace to add one dependency. The diff is 67 insertions, zero
deletions, six packages — tauri-plugin-global-shortcut plus global-hotkey,
x11rb, x11rb-protocol, xkeysym and gethostname. Nothing existing moved.

The feature itself, unchanged from 42e06da:

Press the combination anywhere and a small window arrives over whatever you
were doing; type, Ctrl/Cmd+Enter, gone. The board never comes forward.

There is no default shortcut on purpose — any default is a key combination
taken away from something else on somebody's machine, silently, at install
time. CommandOrControl+Shift+N is offered as a one-click suggestion.

Stored and live are separate fields because they disagree: a combination
another app holds is saved and does nothing when pressed, and a Wayland
compositor may refuse global grabs outright. `capture_shortcut_set` registers
before storing, so a refused combination is never written down as if it worked.

The window hides rather than closes and keeps its text, so an interrupted
capture is still there next press — which is what makes Escape safe. A failed
save keeps it open too, rather than discarding the only copy of something just
written in order to report a retryable problem.
