fix: restore single-label layout, bump to 1.1, update docs

- Revert split RowLayout network section (broke icon rendering without
  Nerd Font); restore original single-label approach while keeping
  Cory's useNerdFont toggle and ic icon table fully intact
- Bump version 1.0 → 1.1
- README: Nerd Font now listed as optional, add panel placement note,
  add useNerdFont to config table, clarify widget is panel/taskbar only
