`pkill -SIGUSR1 i3bar-river` does not make bar reappear #12

Contrary to manual suggestion ("Show/hide with pkill -SIGUSR1 i3bar-river"), pkill -SIGUSR1 i3bar-river hides the bar (reserving space) but does not show it.

To make the bar reappear, it is necessary to relaunch, but then the user is left with two i3bar-river processes.

A workaround I'm using so far is pkill i3bar-river 2> /dev/null || i3bar-river.

It works perfectly fine on river. It most probably is a hyprland bug: https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/issues/2012
