Adds a decorative layer to the radial menu: small nerd-font glyphs orbit the
ring nodes (and occasionally the center) at a fixed radial "height" per
satellite, only their angle changes — easing toward the cursor plus a slight
idle wobble. Faint dashed/dotted/solid orbit-path circles trace each one.
Per page build (not per frame, so it never flickers):
- total count is 2 + random(1, (3 % node-amount) + 2), clamped to node
capacity, spread across at least 3 distinct nodes when there are that many
- a node can get up to 2 satellites; since each has its own fixed height they
never overlap, and the gap between a doubled pair is widened further
- a doubled pair splits its motion — one tracks only the cursor's X, the
other only Y, each with its own random phase offset so multiple doubled
nodes on one page don't move in lockstep
- every satellite gets independent horizontal/vertical response multipliers,
so it can read as more reactive to one direction than the other
- some satellites get tangential bracket flourishes (-<, -[, -(, -{, -|)
rotated to the orbit's local tangent
Toggleable via ~/.local/state/orbit-menu/config.json ({"satellites": false})
since config-updater wipes ~/.config/orbit-menu on every sync.
