Add new IPC actions that extend the existing vertical focus/movement commands to cross workspace boundaries: - window-focus-or-workspace-up/down - window-move-or-workspace-up/down When the focused window is already at the top/bottom of its column, instead of silently doing nothing, these actions switch to the adjacent workspace and restore focus or move the window there. This matches the behavior of Niri and feels more natural for scrollable-tiling layouts where workspace boundaries are meant to be seamless. The original window-focus-up/down and window-move-up/down actions remain unchanged for users who prefer workspace-local behavior. docs/user/keybinds.md updated to document the new actions.
