This change addresses critical performance issues and resource leaks identified in the application.

  1. Database Optimization: The get_input_history command previously fetched all raw input events, causing massive memory spikes and IPC bottlenecks. It now uses a server-side SQL aggregation query (get_input_history_aggregated) to fetch pre-bucketed data, reducing the payload size by over 99%.
  2. Thread Safety: The InputMonitor now has a proper shutdown mechanism. On Windows, it posts a WM_QUIT message to break the rdev message loop, preventing zombie threads during app reloads.
  3. Resource Management:
    • IconSystem no longer initializes with System::new_all(), significantly reducing startup CPU usage.
    • windows_api::get_process_name now properly closes process handles, fixing a leak that would accumulate thousands of handles over time.
  4. Cross-Platform: The codebase has been updated to compile cleanly on Linux (stubbing Windows-only features) while retaining full functionality on Windows.

- Implemented `get_input_history_aggregated` to use SQL `GROUP BY` for massive reduction in IPC overhead (476k rows -> 169 rows).
- Added `start()` and `stop()` lifecycle management to `InputMonitor` to prevent thread leaks.
- Implemented Windows-specific thread shutdown using `PostThreadMessageW(WM_QUIT)`.
- Optimized `IconSystem` initialization to use `System::new()` instead of `System::new_all()`, avoiding unnecessary system info gathering.
- Fixed a handle leak in `windows_api.rs` by explicitly closing `OpenProcess` handles.
- Ensured cross-platform compilation compatibility.
