hypr: guard whisrs hold-to-talk binds with daemon state

Browse source 
Long holds occasionally dropped the release event in Hyprland, leaving
whisrs recording until its silence auto-stop, and any stray toggle
(key repeat, re-fired press) could invert the state so that pressing
stopped and releasing started. The press and release binds now go
through tiny scripts that check the daemon status first, making the
toggle pair idempotent: start only when idle, stop only when recording.

Also a note-to-self: Hyprland auto-reloads when files under the config
symlink change, so a git rebase in this repo can transiently drop
newly added binds; run hyprctl reload after git operations.
