feat: implement modal keybindings for layout and master pane control

Browse source 
Add XMonad.Hooks.Modal to separate layout switching and master pane
manipulation into distinct modal namespaces. This resolves keybinding
conflicts and creates a more organized interaction model.

Changes:
- Layout mode (M-a l): one-shot layout selection (d/m/f)
- Master mode (M-a m): persistent pane adjustments with arrow keys
- Restore ppExtras with logMode to display active mode in xmobar
- Remove conflicting Home/End/PageUp/PageDown bindings from master pane
- Simplify navigation by moving screen focus back to Home/End

**Key architectural components:**
- **Navigation2D**: Directional window and screen navigation using arrow keys and Navigation2D module
- **Custom keybindings**: Leader-key approach (`M-a` prefix) for spawning applications and layout switching
- **Modal keybindings**: Uses `XMonad.Hooks.Modal` for organizing keybindings into modes (inspired by i3wm)
- Layout mode (`M-a l`): Unified mode for both layout operations
- `d/m/f` - Jump to layout (exits immediately)
- Arrow keys - Adjust master/slave split (stays in mode, `<Escape>` to exit)
- Spawn mode (`M-a s`): Launch infrequent applications (exits immediately)
- `t` - Thunar file manager
- `s` - Screenshot tool
- **Leader-key approach**: `M-a` prefix for spawning applications and entering modes
- **Window manipulation**: Uses `XMonad.Actions.RotSlaves` for window rotation (mimics wezterm behavior)
- **Layout system**: Three layouts - dynamic tiling, maximised, and fullscreen
- **StatusBar integration**: Communicates with xmobar via `_XMONAD_LOG_1` X property
- **Mnemonic bindings**: Control (M-C) for layout manipulation, Shift (M-S) for window operations
- **StatusBar integration**: Communicates with xmobar via `_XMONAD_LOG_1` X property, displays active mode via `logMode`
- **Multimedia keys**: Uses `Graphics.X11.ExtraTypes.XF86` for XF86 multimedia key support (audio controls)
