fix(hyprland/workspaces): stabilize reload and event handling

Hyprland workspace reloads could stack duplicate scroll-event connections,
causing a single wheel gesture to switch multiple workspaces after repeated
config reloads. The persistent-workspaces monitor-array form also created the
monitor name instead of the configured workspace name.

Disconnect and replace the scroll handler on reinit, fix the persistent
workspace name selection, normalize urgent-window address matching, and reject
malformed workspace payloads before they corrupt the local state machine.
