[macos] Process crashes with Unexpectedly found nil while unwrapping an Optional value

[DanielMe]

I see the aw-watcher-window process randomly crashing on MacOS after a while. I cannot quite determine what triggers the crash.

Here is the output of the process with --verbose:

Note the exception main/macos.swift:282: Fatal error: Unexpectedly found nil while unwrapping an Optional value.

Looking at the code location, I am not on the same version as the master branch. I am using the version bundled with ActivityWatch version v0.12.2.

This line could be a candidate:
https://github.com/ActivityWatch/aw-watcher-window/blob/f08afe80cc3af1c62f948abb015be0ad3adcec67/aw_watcher_window/macos.swift#L282C1-L282C55

In that case the issue would be fixed with 82d9673

Does the .dmg package on https://activitywatch.net/ potentially contain an old version?
