Apply sends a backend-generated blurred JPEG instead of the original while extraction keeps sampling the unblurred source. Includes the regenerated Wails bindings (reformatted by the v2.15 CLI; also carries the ThemeFolderExists and originalWallpaperPath fields used by the following commits).
This reverts commit 8405404.

This PR is meant as a seed planter — to start the conversation. I also looked at the existing blur functionality, and although it does blur, it's... not great... and doesn't really do what I wanted + its kinda hidden away. This is a single button, front and center, and offers a gorgeous background blur for those aesthetics nuts out there.
What
BlurWallpaper— the blurred JPEG is applied as the desktop background while the original stays untouched for palette extractionOriginalWallpaperPaththrough the full theme pipeline so both the blurred and unblurred copies land inbackgrounds/(desktop cycler can switch between them)omarchy-theme-setto prevent it cycling to a stock imageThemeFolderExiststo let the frontend offer updating an existing saved theme in placeWhy
Wallpapers with high-frequency detail (text, sharp edges, busy patterns) clash with overlaid UI elements. A blurred variant gives a clean backdrop while preserving palette extraction from the sharp source.
