slab-menubar: hide Dock icon, drop full-screen HUD overlay

Sets NSApplicationActivationPolicyAccessory so the menu bar app no longer
shows up in the Dock or Cmd-Tab. Removes the click-through full-screen
overlay (Overlay class, AppKit window/text-field imports, "Show desktop
HUD" menu item) — the menu bar status item is enough.
