[REQUEST] allow refreshing desktop cache without spawning window.

[SolitudeSF]

Before opening a feature request

• I checked the next branch to see if the feature has already been implemented
• I searched existing reports to see if it is already requested.

What is the user problem or growth opportunity you want to see solved?

currently to refresh desktop cache you need to run rofi -drun-reload-desktop-cache -show drun, which spawns a window. but opening a drun window while using a cache and refreshing a cache should not be intertwined, so it puzzles me what is the intended workflow is. You cant hook cache refreshing to package managers or fs watchers. You either run this command to immediately close the window, or have two keybinds, for when you want to launch slower/faster.

Rofi version (rofi -v)

Version: 1.7.8

The drun-use-desktop-cache is a feature I don't expect 99.9999% off the user needing to use. I do not use it myself, even on pre-history hardware, as it is not needed.

Up to now nobody ever complained about this. It can be added, but in a 'clean' way might not be completely trivial given how modes are abstracted and ran.

I miss several fields in this issue report. The template is there for a reason.
