Fixes the hotkey going completely silent instead of just "unreliable."

Fixed

  • The hotkey could register zero times instead of falling back. The
    0.1.15 self-heal only ever retried with the default shortcut, and only
    when the configured shortcut already differed from it — so a transient
    registration failure while the configured shortcut was already the
    default (the common case) left the app with no working hotkey at all
    until the next restart, no retry, no fallback. This is exactly what
    happens when an old build is still squatting on the same combo: confirmed
    live via ps aux finding a pre-0.1.15 /Applications/SuperSearch.app
    process still running (started well before the fix was pulled) still
    holding Alt+Space, which the newly-started process's own registration
    attempt then silently lost to. Registration now retries the same
    shortcut up to 3 times with a 200ms backoff before giving up on it —
    covers the OS taking a moment to release a hotkey a just-exited duplicate
    process (an old build, or a single_instance/dev-restart handoff) was
    still holding.
