nixos/yabar: fix module & test (#46954)
The `pkgs.yabar` package is relatively old (2016-04) and contains several issues fixed on master. `yabar-unstable` containsa recent master build with several fixes and a lot of new features (I use `yabar-unstable` for some time now and had no issues with it). In the upstream bugtracker some bugs could be fixed on ArchLinux by simply installing `yabar-git` (an AUR package which builds a recent master). To stabilize the module, the option `programs.yabar.package` now defaults to `pkgs.yabar-unstable` and yields a warning with several linked issues that are known on `pkgs.yabar`. The test has been refactored as well to ensure that `yabar` actually starts (and avoid non-deterministic random success) and takes a screenshot of a very minimalistic configuration on IceWM. Fixes #46899
