[idea] open a terminal in the directory where you ran herdr

[iacore]

Running herdr from a directory attaches to the persistent session and restores the previous layout. If I am in a new project directory, I land in whatever workspace was focused last — I have to navigate to open a terminal where I actually am. For a multiplexer-style workflow (one terminal window per project), the launch directory is the natural thing to show.

The behavior I would like: running herdr in a directory shows a terminal pane for that directory — focusing an existing workspace when one already covers it, otherwise opening a new one. Plain reattach (restore the previous layout) would stay the default.

Would a config option (off by default) fit Herdr model here?

@iacore I vibecoded a script here - #841 (comment)

I already patched herdr to do that. Thanks though!
