fix: the sidebar button follows the panel, and the wish survives having no source

The toolbar button was the panel's only input: `update_side_visibility()` derived the
panel from the button and never the other way, so the button went on saying "shown" in
two cases where the panel was off -- while there were no signals to show, and after
anything else moved the split view's state.

Binding the two together is not the fix. AdwOverlaySplitView writes `show-sidebar`
itself, at startup and when it collapses, with no user involved; a binding pushes that
into the button, the button's handler reads it as the user's wish, and the sidebar then
never comes back when a source connects -- a worse bug than the one reported, and one
that a "was this our own write" flag does not catch either, because the toggle's signal
may fire after the write returns.

So the direction is stated instead of inferred: `show-sidebar` is an output, the button
is the only input, and `App::sidebar_wanted` holds the wish between them. The wish is
written by the toggle's handler alone (guarded while we set the button ourselves), the
no-signals case forces the panel off without touching the wish, and tick() re-asserts
both from the wish when the widget disagrees -- so a hide gesture does not stick either.

[sidebar-probe] now reads the pair (shown vs button) in both states and against a hide
that did not come from the button; shown=1 button=1 with a source, shown=0 button=0
without, and the source reconnecting brings both back is the reading this exists for.
