📄 Description

Adds a set_visible IPC command which takes a boolean visibility and string bar_name fields.
Simultaneously adds a new config name option to name each bar individually (defaults to the monitor name)

Behavior as-is will show/hide every bar with a given name. e.g, 2 bars both with the name test will be shown/hidden if we pass
{"type":"set_visible","visible"=true,bar_name="test"}
