quickshell: skip hidden dirs in file search, log launcher opens

Browse source 
fd drops --hidden, so ~/.cache, ~/.local/share/Steam, .git trees and
friends are out of the search entirely — most of the files under $HOME
and none of them worth matching by name. The .git/.cache/.steam excludes
go with it; node_modules is the one junk tree that isn't hidden.

Also log the three points that can swallow a Super+R: the IPC handler
when no bar is registered, the toggle itself, and the focus grab closing
a panel the user didn't close. journalctl --user -u quickshell.
