# Spawn-or-focus logic for Niri:
# If no "app" windows exist, spawn one.
# If focused window is not "app", focus the first "app" instance.
# If "app" is focused and only one instance exists, spawn + consume into stack.
# If "app" is focused and two instances already exist, spawn a new separate one.
# Cycle repeats: focus first > allow stack of 2 > reset on 3rd.
