Subject: [PATCH] feat(bar): add default interface options to display friendly
 name or local IP

Adds a new configuration to the Network widget from komorebi-bar, which
allows you to toggle between viewing your Default Interface's friendly
name, IPv4 or IPv6.

Motivation: I find it very useful to check your local IP at a glance,
and missed the feature heavily from other wms in Linux.
