Problem
On narrow taskbars, or setups with the Widgets/weather button or many centered app icons, the bar can grow wide enough to run into the taskbar app icons. DeskTabs currently assumes there is enough room on the left.
Proposal
Add CompactMode = auto | full | short | icon to CONF:
full — index + name (current)short — index + truncated nameicon — index number / colour square / custom icon only, like the app icons on the taskbarauto — start at full; when the computed bar width exceeds a budget (a share of the taskbar width), downshift step by step until it fits
Solves "runs into the icons" via a width budget, without precisely detecting the icon cluster (unreliable on the Win11 XAML taskbar).
